Location
Taken in a field where sheep graze. Grassland at about 800 feet in mid Wales.Time
Early afternoonLighting
Natural daylight seems to work for this sort of shot!Equipment
Canon camera - very basic 1100D - with Canon 300 mm zoom so shallow depth of field...Inspiration
The fruiting bodies of fungi are really the "tip of the iceberg..." The mycelia spread great distances underground and the above ground appearance of "fairy rings' gives them a certain magic.Editing
There seemed to be no need to edit the image: I was happy with it.In my camera bag
Canon 1100D and 100D. I'd love a full frame camera to capture more detail... Regular Canon zoom lenses.Feedback
A groundsheet is handy for lying down in damp grassland.
