Artful pics of flora...

Pretty quiet here

Some from a few days ago, testing my "new" Meyer Görlitz Oreston 50/1.8

Bokeh isn't as characterful as some other Meyers, but I find the rendering very pleasing, not harsh but still sharp.
And with my new helicoil M42 adapter it's a great semi macro


Lunaria:



Allium 1



Allium 2


All on a Sony A7Rii, somewhere around f 4.0

never seen orange fugi like these before ...

I think it's a Zwavelzwam Bart, we had one in our street a few years ago:




When it grew older the plates became thinner



And it seemed so special that a lot of people lined up to take a shot :toocool:


It seems to be edible, but I don't think anybody in our neighbourhood tried it.

Some shrooms from last year, the season is almost here for us this year.
