Wasp's Nest Slime Mold

This is another slime mold, which is particularly difficult to photograph because of its dark and glossy surface. Still, I managed to capture something. They are characterized by always gathering in clusters, a bit differently from most slime molds. After photographing it, I also noticed that it has quite a colorful surface. It may not look very aesthetic, but it is still an incredibly fascinating organism. That’s nature...

 

Focus stacked at f/2.8 from 56 shots using Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5x ultra macro and Canon EOS R6 Mark II.
