One of my first fungi species Loukie - some think they are only to be found in fairy tale books :)
For those wondering about the common name of this species - In the early days this poisonous Amanita was crushed up in some milk and left around dairies as a deadly lure for flies.

Yes, fairy tale material. Don't forget to include the techs for the image so we evaluate it better.

I think you could have probably used a smaller aperture to get more depth of Niel, but can't tell for sure without looking at the spechs.

Hey Loukie, I think it looks good as is, good details and color.

In the transparency days very few cameras provided exif files, so we did not pay much attention, and after being scanned in there was nothing left of the exif, sorry
