HaarFager's photos with the keyword: Mushrooms

This is what I threw together for dinner last night - some top sirloin sauteed in sesame oil with sesame seeds and garlic, and some rosemary thrown in, with mushrooms in brown gravy on top of it. I served it over a bed of rice. Taken with my Sony Alpha SLT-a77V DSLR on November 5th, 2021.

This is for The Sunday Challenge group, who's theme this week was "Abstract," spotlighting the color "Red." The initial image of the mushrooms is detailed elsewhere, but suffice to say I shot them on Monday while lighting them with a tiny maglight shone through a 1970 Chevrolet Nova tail light lens. I then took the image into Adobe Photo Deluxe 2.0 and made it into the cube you see in the middle of the image. After I had the cube finished, I needed somewhere to put it. For the sunset seascape with the clear sphere, I used Bryce 5 and created a suitable background in which to meld my cube. After I had both pieces ready, I blended them using Adobe Photoshop CS2. The original shot:

For this weeks TSC mission, I shot these tiny mushrooms that were growing in my basement with a small maglight shining through a 1970 Chevrolet Nova tail light lens. It was a 30 second timed exposure and I moved the light around so that it lit from more than just the extreme left. I knew that I was going to do more with this shot for the actual challenge submission, but this part of it was shot on Monday. (Probably the earliest I've come up with a subject for The Sunday Challenge!)
