Flaming Moss - Calocera Viscosa

I haven't sorted all of them yet, but I think I posted all the "flickrable" pictures I took in China. Of course, I may find others that can have some interest. However, I can now keep on posting my "regular" works.

 

I bought my first DSLR (the canon 100D) at the very end of my first trip in China. So do I bought my second one at the very end of my second trip in China ^^. So here is the first picture I post taken with my new Canon 80D.

 

I know that I am a little bit late with my Mushroom shots (Winter is now taking advantage over Autumn), but I took this one a few weeks back.

 

Among mushrooms you find in the forest Calocera Viscosa is probably one of the most inspiring : it really look like some little flame on the moss. I can't see one of them without trying to take a picture. However, I find quite difficult to get something satisfactory. This one was probably easier because it standed at the top of an isolated tree stump. So I was free of moving arround, shooting it from below and creating a nice bokeh thanks to the light coming across the leaves of the surronding trees.
