Description
It has been a very wet Spring and Summer. I have a lot of tiny mushrooms growing in my flower beds . . . but this one was a giant! We had so much fun with it . . . my grandsons came over and we posed their little dinosaur toys under it. Our little child imaginations (yes, I include myself in that description) had a grand time pretending this to be a giant ancient tree with wild dangerous creatures living below it.
Later I came out with my camera and tried to get some interesting angles of this garden sculpture. This is my favorite . . . I didn't even notice it until I looked at a larger view on my computer . . on the top of the crest of the slope is a very tiny little circle . . . and then my childish imagination kicked in again . . . and I saw a skier waiting to rush down a snow covered slope . . . going 'shroom . . .shroom . . . shroom!'
Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!

‘Shroom, ‘shroom, ’shroom - sometimes the words paint a picture of their own! I also have some photos of my grandsons dinosaurs living in unique foliage.

Very interesting perspective on this one, almost looks abstract. Great job finding a position that would fit so well in frame!
