    sorry Mark, but the DOF on this one is absolutely not correct. In such a picture the eye want to be guided towards the captured object, but here I only see a picture which is to 80% in focus. The "Fungi" is not the attraction its just a white something with some green around it. You should have also removed the grass in front of the Fungi to separate it from the rest. The angle is very standard because most of the "photographers" are too lazy or simply don`t want to get wet or dirty to achieve a better angle !

    "contra" from me.
