Stump with Fungus

in

This stump is just down the road from where I live. I’ve walked past it many times, but it was only after I browsed through a couple of the photography books I have that I found the inspiration to go and take a photo of the stump. I decided to take one of my older cameras out for a spin. Well, older in the context of digital cameras. It is a bit quirky, and does not have the bells and whistles of a brand new digital camera, but the image quality is still more than good enough.

It’s been a while since I posted anything now, and a while since I last shot with the camera I have used for this image. Some might say this camera can't quite match the newer models, but I still think the image quality is fine. Focusing is a bit fiddly, and I had to take several images to get the flower in focus the way I wanted. But I don’t mind that. It’s almost like a form of meditation to me.
