Cool photo! Looks like you have reached the minimum distance limit capabilities for your lens and camera's ability for macro photography too (which is very close!). I once photographed a very close macro of some tiny (perhaps 5 mm) orange mushrooms at Occoneechee Mountain at the Panther's Den area and noticed much the same depth of field limitations and thought it was a cool photo but not nearly as great as yours as your photo definitely has a much more interesting background - Love it! Excellent work!

PS. With so many different species (probably in the millions if not more) of mushrooms and/or toadstoods it makes one to wonder if all of them have registered species names? Also you might want to add these tags: mushrooms, mushroom (plural and singular) to your photo so it can be grouped with the rest of those already posted here too.

I'm glad you like this photo.  It was overcast, but still a good day to take in the colors of the season.  Got lucky capturing this pose with the boys, they tend to ham it up too much.

Beautiful scene. Nice sense of foreground and background. Nice colors.

good..i agree 100%..glad that smoking has been banned..because The youth of today are becoming more prone to smoking and drugs and there is a sharp increase in the number of drug addicts. It is indeed very important to make them aware of its consequences. The best way to get clean and sober is to engage in rehab centers and find a recovery support system that works for you.

Glad you were able to breach "the wall". 

I think you have just coined a good name for this effect as it must be giving the techies who are working on this website's structure a real fit by now. I am thinking there must be some kind of unique set of circumstances responsible for creating "the wall" - kinda analogous to the Invisible Electrostatic Wall once encountered at a 3M adhesive tape plant in South Carolina.

...either that or a team of phychologists have created a digital maze for folks like us to navigate through while they drool over their monitors 24/7 studying human behavior in an online environment. Just poking fun here. :o) Glad to hear from you again and see some of your new photos!
