Submitter's name:	Ian Wilcox
Title:	Fungle in the Jungle
Gear used:	E-1 + 14-54mm at 14mm
Diaphragm:	f5
Shutter speed:	1/125s
Film used:	Digital
Technical information:	Once again I found the best of my shots during this period was with he E1 rather than OM, I picked ten for the shortlist and my wife preferred this one as it was more unusual than the others and the colours are good. It is not tweaked although I am beginning to suspect Iview is maybe doing something. It was resized in gimp.
Subject information:	Out walking with the family around a lake I saw this tree in the forest and thought it might be worth braving the ticks (safely in the knowledge that I have been vaccinated against the worst they can do, they may be litle but they can have quite an effect on you) to lie on the floor. I hope you agree with my wife's choice :-)

Nice shot. I like the angle on this shot; your wife made a good choice!

Beautiful shot! Of course I am fond of fungi.

Good shot! Reminds me of a mushroom shot of Jan Steinman some years ago, taken with a Zuiko 16mm with 7mm extension tube. I like close working distance wide angle shots.

I like the light on this one. There is just enough in the shadows to make the picture work. Also I would like to note that the number of digital images in TOPE seems to be mushrooming.
