Toadstools

October seems to be the month for toadstools and this year I've seen some great displays of colour and texture. 

These pictures taken in woodland near to Beeley Moor, Derbyshire. All with a Nikon Z7ii and at around 20-40mm, low ISO's of 80-100 and at f5.6 or thereabouts. An addition of a small LED light and all shot in the early morning sun using a small tripod

Heron, a few more edits...

Heron, a few more edits. Taken in Derbyshire over the weekend.  

All taken with a Nikon Z7ii in manual mode. Generally with a 300mm f5.6 @1/1250 to 1/1600 with the  ISO set between 800/1000, manual focus

Still LIfe Photography

A few examples of still life, taken with a Nikon Z7ii. A genre of photography used for the depiction of inanimate subject matter, typically a small group of objects. Lit with a small LED and using a soft backdrop, and of course a tripod. Typically shot at f22 ISO 100  1/8 to 1/10 sec with  a 30mm Nikkor. Similar to still life painting, it is the application of photography to the still life artistic style.
