Photograph by Agorastos Papatsanis , National Geographic Your Shot
I am a big fan of mushrooms, writes Your Shot member Agorastos Papatsanis . He encountered these specimens on Mount Olympus. On one of my autumn excursions in the beech forest, I found this amazing porcelain fungus (Oudemansiella mucida). I was drawn to their cyclic hats with the radial paths of the gills, the amazing porcelain texture, and the combination of rain and sun. I used the available bright sunlight as a backlight and enhanced it with an off-camera flash to create this atmosphere.
Papatsanis's picture recently appeared in the Your Shot assignment Macro .
