Finding magic in the mossy, hidden corners of the earth

It has been a while since I clicked picture from my mobile. Life was pretty occupied lately and also the falling #hive prices took the shine away from regular posting. But today a early morning walk to my field allow me to check my mobile camera functioning. It is sad to notice that the camera has been damaged. There is a little crack on the third lens, which help in the #macro photography. I was intrigued to see how the camera works after the crack. I found some perfect opportunity in clicking some wild mushroom that grows in the wilderness. It is good to check on my lenses and here are some of the pics that clicked on my way.

As I walked through the open field I noticed a number of mushroom hidden in middle of the Green grass. There were variety of shapes and size, they appear quite delicate. some of them were buds while some of them were pops out perfectly. The mushroom that we see in the morning didn't just start growing that day. The vast underground network of the fungus, called mycelium, spends days or weeks absorbing nutrients and gathering energy.

Mushrooms are incredibly moisture sensitive. During the cool, calm hours of the night and early morning they pops out of the soil. Morning air is typically still and cool, which creates the perfect conditions for mushrooms to release their spores. As i walk through many of them were pressed against my foot. they were very sensitive. It was like walking on the fungi bed. I keep on clicking as I went through the ground. There were number of them and each of them different from others.

Unlike wildlife, mushrooms won't run away. This allows photographers like us, to take a closer shot perfectly. This is why I took a number of them. In process I happen to check upon my camera, which seems little imbalances due to the lens crack. The camera unable to focus properly on the subject, giving a blurry picture. Sems it is a time to look out for some alternative capture. Hope you enjoy the fungi picture in the meantime.

In good faith - Peace!!
