P365 Day 77

Turn over just about any branch or pile of leaves that has sat undisturbed and damp for a while, and you’re bound to find this feathery white fungus. It seems to grow on decomposing vegetable matter and probably helps to break it down.

This macro photo was taken with my 24-70mm lens at 70mm with 60mm macro extension. You can see the setup shot here: www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151775639046660&set…

Beaded Art Deco Headpiece – by Naomi

Last night, after many months of on-and-off work, Naomi completed what I think is one of her most beautiful beaded artworks yet, a green, silver and black beaded feather headpiece.

This piece will be on display in the members showcase at the Bead Society of Victoria Bead Expo, on this weekend in the Kingston City Hall, Moorabbin. If you go, make sure you say hi to Naomi, who will be running a class on loomed beading, and volunteering at the BSV stand.

To take this photo, I simply laid the headpiece on a sheet of white card, and bounced a single flash off our white ceiling. The flash was placed at camera top right. I turned the flash power up to full, so that I could stop down the aperture a bit to get as big a depth of field as possible. I believe I was shooting at f16 or so.
