Thanks for the "Great POV" comment as this was a special effort as I carried them outside and then made the shot from the ground up to both capture the detail you see but also include some blue sky.

Love the angle.

1Ernesto July 17, 2014
Thanks! The angle was a result of being totally underneath the mushroom and looking directly up at the sky.
