Re: The Last Hurrah Project: 07/27/25 The latest Mushrooms!

As has become custom for this neverending project, I wish to support the idea of photographying everything you have done up until now again. 

(great job!!!)

Thanks, Doc! I am happy you are enjoying all the photos. As it turns out I have some more to post.
After much procrastinating, I mounted up the first base of Mushrooms yesterday:










I think there will be more individually based Mushrooms than I initially planned on.

Now that looks like a fun group to party with!

The shiny finish for the ones with the cupped caps is a nice touch.

Thanks, Mister Frau Blucher. I am glad you like them. The gloss finish has reminded at least one viewer of raspberry jam.

AND yet another base is done:








There you go.

As suggested a group shot would be rather interesting.  Of course it will require a large table and a wide angle lens but it would be fun to see.

there should be some sort of Group Portrait eventually...I do love the en masse pics. The Twisted Tower stage will probably work.

Your new creations present a multicolored composition of a grand mushroom variety!
Always with strikingly contrasting colors!
And you did well to shoot them from various angles, as from any aspect that you look at them one can see something different!   
And the bases are almost ready to steal the show! Rocks and grass and flowers! Beautiful!
Me thinks you've gone up one level! Cheers!

Thanks you for another kind reply, Dinos. I am delighted you enjoy the pieces, & do appreciate the support.
What comes next is anyone's guess. Matching the personalities up is challenging.

Another couple/trio of Mushrooms have escaped from The Box:










Seen here with the second base:


Have a pleasant evening!

[DintheDin]

LOVELY! And their hats lovelier!
And as I said before, you are mastering the color transitions!
The yellow spots are perfect!
Cheers!

Thanks for the kind reply, Dinod. I am happy you enjoyed them. I was hoping the yellow dots would add a finishing touch.

While searching the floor under my worktable for some errant piece, I found a Mushroom that had gone missing. Here he is all base coated:




AND seen here with the other Fellows who are yet to be painted:


More later...or not!

Mushrooms tend to grow back in the same spots, and pickers keep the locations under tight secrecy. Under your workbench might be one such location ^.^

This is true..truffle hunters in particular. With me it is more a matter of being at the age where I tend to drop things...frequently.

He was trying to hide from you. Glad he is no longer MIA.

For some reason the mushroom on the right looks like he might be wearing glasses. Guess it is the lines around the eyes. Some of your wild-eyed boys look like they could use a pair!
