I like mushrooms, and always take the shot if I find one. I’m especially intrigued by the gills I usually find on the underside, so always look to see what is there. I found this fellow in my back yard, but when I looked at the “B-side,” there were not gills, but this incredible latticework. I’ve never seen one like this before, and would be obliged if anyone could share with me what kind of mushroom this is. In any case, I thought it was cool. Thought I’d share. Eight images combined in Helicon Focus so the whole thing is in focus.

Close up candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. A little too close as my lens failed to focus properly and his leading eye is a little soft in 1:1 view but I love the shot anyway. Enjoy!

The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided canyon carved by the Colorado River in Arizona, United States. The Grand Canyon is 277 miles (446 km) long, up to 18 miles (29 km) wide and attains a depth of over a mile (6,093 feet or 1,857 meters).
The canyon and adjacent rim are contained within Grand Canyon National Park, the Kaibab National Forest, Grand Canyon–Parashant National Monument, the Hualapai Indian Reservation, the Havasupai Indian Reservation and the Navajo Nation. The surrounding area is contained within the Baaj Nwaavjo I'tah Kukveni – Ancestral Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument. President Theodore Roosevelt was a major proponent of the preservation of the Grand Canyon area and visited it on numerous occasions to hunt and enjoy the scenery.
Nearly two billion years of Earth's geological history have been exposed as the Colorado River and its tributaries cut their channels through layer after layer of rock while the Colorado Plateau was uplifted. While some aspects about the history of incision of the canyon are debated by geologists, several recent studies support the hypothesis that the Colorado River established its course through the area about 5 to 6 million years ago. Since that time, the Colorado River has driven the down-cutting of the tributaries and retreat of the cliffs, simultaneously deepening and widening the canyon.
For thousands of years, the area has been continuously inhabited by Native Americans, who built settlements within the canyon and its many caves. The Pueblo people considered the Grand Canyon a holy site, and made pilgrimages to it. The first European known to have viewed the Grand Canyon was García López de Cárdenas from Spain, who arrived in 1540.

Grand Canyon National Park is a national park of the United States located in northwestern Arizona, the 15th site to have been named as a national park. The park's central feature is the Grand Canyon, a gorge of the Colorado River, which is often considered one of the Wonders of the World. The park, which covers 1,217,262 acres (1,901.972 sq mi; 4,926.08 km2) of unincorporated area in Coconino and Mohave counties, received more than 4.7 million recreational visitors in 2023. The Grand Canyon was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1979. The park celebrated its 100th anniversary on February 26, 2019.

Entirely within the state of Arizona, the park encompasses 278 miles (447 km) of the Colorado River and adjacent uplands. Located on the ancestral homelands of 11 present day Tribal Communities, Grand Canyon is one of the most spectacular examples of erosion anywhere in the world—a mile deep canyon unmatched in the incomparable vistas it offers visitors from both north and south rims.

Walking around the harbour I looked back to see the evening light shining on these two boats, the pale orange colours in the reflections are from quayside buildings. Photographed in the pretty town of Wells next to the Sea, Norfolk UK. This image is dedicated to whipper_snapper who I met on the quayside that evening. Pleased to meet and chat with a fellow Flickr'er.
Seen from the plateau, the Swallow-hole looks like a funnel, with a diameter of 10 to 15 metres and a depth of 4 to 7 metres.
A 75 metre vertical shaft drops down from this opening to the main chamber.
The main chamber is oval and measures 120 metres long and 60 metres wide. It lies on a slope and its greatest depth from the top of the shaft is 112 metres. The main chamber has a volume of around 200 000 m³.
The upper part of the chamber is çovered in all kinds of debris and fallen earth that has dropped down from the surface. The lower part contains a forest of stalagmites from 1 to 30 metres high. This group of stone cypresses has been baptised "Forêt Vierge" (Virgin Forest).
At the end of the cavern, a second big shaft drops down 87 metres lower, where it is obstructed by stones and clay, which have slid into place over time. On his fifth visit on 26 May 1926, Edouard Alfred Martel exclaimed: "Nothing like it is known at the present time anywhere else underground!".
The soft fog isolates a thin mountain crest.

Hello friends! Id really appreciate if you viewed this image in some form of higher resolution by either clicking the L key on your keyboard, or even seeing it in fullscreen. And if you have the balls, view it in original size. Because this image is pretty sharp! :D. haha
I really needed this photoshoot, i was actually starting to get bored with my photographic abilities. When Melanie contacted me for a senior shoot and expressed her excitement and wanting to do it at the beach, i was ecstatic. The last few sessions i have had have been sort of boring. Everybody wants the same thing, a field or a hill, the same poses, so it really felt like work to me. I was just working through the motions, but this shoot was different! It was a photo adventure! :). I was really feeling it that day too, consider this a preview i guess. I have a Bio midterm i should be studying for right now, so i dont plan on editing any more photos until friday, but enjoy this photo for the time being. It was a quick edit i threw together last night after frantically trying to finish my physics hw due haha.
5D + 35L (so sharp!) I recommend one of these lenses to everybody and their mothers.
The Dells of the Wisconsin River, also called the Wisconsin Dells (from French dalles, or narrows), is a 5-mile (8-km) gorge on the Wisconsin River in south-central Wisconsin, USA. It is noted for its scenic beauty, in particular for its unique Cambrian sandstone rock formations and tributary canyons.
The cliffs, some over 100 feet (30 m) high, and side canyons are closed to the public to protect sensitive ecological features. The viewing of the rock formations by water is a popular tourist attraction in the area. The nearby city of Wisconsin Dells is the center of summer tourist activity, much of it in the form of the theme parks unrelated to the river features.
The Dells was formed during the last ice age approximately 15,000 years ago, although the rock itself is much older, dating from the Cambrian approximately 510-520 million years ago when the area of Wisconsin was at the bottom of a shallow sea.
Approximately 19,000 years ago, the Dells was at the extreme eastern margin of the continental glacier. However, the Dells itself was never covered by glacial ice sheets - it was part of the large Driftless Area that was bypassed by the ice. The melting of the glacier formed Glacial Lake Wisconsin, a lake about the size of Great Salt Lake in Utah and as deep as 150 feet (45 m). The lake was held back by an ice dam of the remaining glacier. The eventual bursting of the ice dam unleashed a catastrophic flood, dropping the lake's depth to 50 feet (15 m) and cutting deep, narrow gorges and unusual rock formations into the sandstone seen today.

This one was pulled out - almost literary - from my 2007 archive. Not because I don't have any new stuff to post, but because I was looking for a good candidate that I could use for a new digital landscape painting and I found this.
Back in 2007 I very good remember that this particular image has caused me a serious dilemma, which resulted in a permanent place in my ever growing archive and probably won't ever see the light. But ... for another reason this image left a permanent impression on me which I probably can't explain in words.
The post-processing on this one was minimal! The early morning atmosphere seems to reveal enough depth and details from the foreground to the far back, yet characterized by a soft and peaceful mood.
Still I'm utterly impressed by the impressively extensive Depth of Field these simple point-and-shoots - such as my 5mp Canon S50 - reveal by their tiny lenses and sensors. It also makes me realize more often than I dare to admit why in the hell I need a bigger, heavier and far more expensive camera and ditto lenses, just trying to mimic the extraordinary DoF each point-and-shoot potentially can capture. This particular strenght of a point-and-shoot - which is very important in landscape photography - is also the very reason why I never bothered a dSLR in the first place. I can't stress enough that all my images - partly until 2008 - were just shot with a rather simple Canon S50. Simplicity works, at least for me!
Post-processing notes
The fence was 10% dodged in lightroom, together with the foremost stump of the tree in the middle and some wheat helping the eye lead to the lighted horizon between the dike and tree.
