  I’ve been heavily involved in photography for a little over 45 years now.
  
  It isn’t too often that a photo comes up on my screen, stops me in my tracks, and makes say out loud, “Wow!”
  
  This is one of those images. It combines nature, artistry, lighting, and post-processing in a such delicate and believable manner. This could easily hang as a gigantic print in a fancy restaurant in NYC, London, or Tokyo.
  
  Congratulations to Joanne on her POTW win.
  
  I also have a second-place winner. This shot also stopped me in my tracks. It’s a beautiful and artistic shot of an ostrich dance by Saranathan A. I’ll post a link to it below.

  Wow, thank you very much everyone for your kind comments. Being in lockdown again in Wales was looking for something to photograph and lo and behold my Oyster Mushrooms I was growing matured. That mushroom was 14cm tall! and shortly after was fried in butter with a little salt and accompanied my ribeye steak beautifully. I have been a little quiet lately due to Family illness and massive house refurbishments and not sure how long it will last. I will try to find more time to visit my fav photography club xxxxxx

  That’s an impressive mushroom. Glad you put it to good use. First as Talent for your well-deserved POTW and as a bonus to accompany your ribeye. Lucky mushroom. (Especially if you decide to make a large print). Congratulations.

  What a very well deserved POTW, congratulations @vanpraag! Great textures, and the high key nature of it makes it even more interesting to contemplate.
