Amidst the lush, biodiverse expanse of Mocagua Comunidad Indígena, Colombia, I captured the Capped Heron (Pilherodius pileatus), a vision of poise and grace. Using a long lens with an extender, I was committed to a fixed aperture of f/16, a choice that sharply delineated the heron from the vibrant chaos of the Amazon backdrop. This setting yielded deep field focus, which crisply brought forth every detail of the heron’s striking features – from the creamy yellow of its neck to the deep black of its cap, and the surprising blue of its face.
The technical limitations became an artistic advantage, as the high aperture allowed for a comprehensive sharpness that enveloped the heron and its environment in equal measure. The result is a photograph that invites the eye not just to the subject but to its context, showcasing the harmonious coexistence of the bird within the complex layers of its habitat. For my fellow photographers on Flickr, this image stands as an example of how gear constraints can lead to unexpected, compelling beauty, a reminder of the dance between equipment, environment, and the wildlife we aim to immortalize.

Some mushrooms are such a beauty for the eye, like these ones, almost look like they are wearing little diamonds ;-))
They are called "Mica caps", because of all those gleaming mica-like granules. Or in Dutch "Glimmerinktzwammen"
"Coprinellus micaceus is a common species of fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae with a cosmopolitan distribution. The fruit bodies of the saprobe typically grow in clusters on or near rotting hardwood tree stumps or underground tree roots. Depending on their stage of development, the tawny-brown mushroom caps may range in shape from oval to bell-shaped to convex, and reach diameters up to 3 cm. The caps, marked with fine radial grooves that extend nearly to the center, rest atop whitish stems up to 10 cm long. In young specimens, the entire cap surface is coated with a fine layer of reflective mica-like cells that provide the inspiration for both the mushroom's species name and the common names mica cap, shiny cap, and glistening inky cap. Although small and with thin flesh, the mushrooms are usually bountiful, as they typically grow in dense clusters. A few hours after collection, the gills will begin to slowly dissolve into a black, inky, spore-laden liquid—an enzymatic process called autodigestion or deliquescence. The fruit bodies are edible before the gills blacken and dissolve, and cooking will stop the autodigestion process." - WiKi
"De gewone glimmerinktzwam (Coprinellus truncorum, synoniem: Coprinus micaceus) is een schimmel uit de familie Psathyrellaceae.
In de jeugd is de hoed van de gewone glimmerinktzwam eivormig en bedekt met witte puntjes, resten van het velum (dit is goed te zien door op de foto te klikken). Later wordt de 1-3 cm grote hoed kegel- tot klokvormig. De hoed is geribbeld en bruinig van kleur. De lamellen zijn eerst wit, verkleuren later tot zwart. De witte steel is 3-10 cm hoog, niet geringd.
Vanaf mei tot in de herfst is de gewone glimmerinktzwam te vinden in groepen, bundels en zwermen. Deze algemene soort leeft op levende en dode loofbomen in bossen, parken en wegbermen." WiKi

One from one of my fave spots down at Killarney. Lots of fun trying to capture images of this wonderful species as they dart across the sand.
I was shooting late evening about 30 minutes before sunset for this image. I love the light at this time of day.

Red-capped Robin
Petroica goodenovii
Petroicidae
Foraging Red-capped Robins usually pounce onto their prey on the ground from an elevated perch, such as a low branch or a stump. The species has also been recorded raking the leaf litter with its feet, regularly stopping and holding its head cocked to one side, presumably to detect any prey it has disturbed.
