Fun With Light & Bokeh ~ Gliophorus ostrinus ?

            Of course, you're not supposed to shoot into the light, but I visited this mushroom several times over a period of several days just so I could get a few shots with the sun filtering through the trees, and some nice sparkly bokeh behind it.
Generallly, I shoot my fungi in overcast conditions, but I was going for a certain "ethereal" look here.
