local mushies

with a week of drizzle gone by (and going on) we went for a walk in the short reprieve. The mushrooms have started to sprout all over the forest. Having my Nokia E72 with me (its got a stunning camera on it for a phone, but overall its a love hate relationship ... but that's another post) enabled me to take these shots of the mushrooms currently in bloom.

Loved the skirt on this one...



and these yellow ones are so cute




I suspect that they start out like this ...



They could be poisonous, but like the Finns say "only eat the mushrooms you know"

Hey Charles, thought this post might bring a knowing smile to your face. The little Nokia does have some basic image processing on board, but they are a little slow in operation, whereas (I expect) the iPhone is quite that bit more powerful.

Ultimately I like the extension of possibility that the phone brings to photography (the best camera you have is the camera you have with you) and this model is certainly a vast improvement over the E63, but I'm not yet ready to abandon my G series just yet :-)

hope alls well your side of the Pacific
