Tell you what right - this site is superb and the members are some of the best people you could ever wish to meet. I went on the D & D Club meet yesterday with Janet (Chase), Alison (AlleyCatz), Alan (Wooly) & Pete. Thouroughly enjoyed the whole day irrespective of the rain. So, this shot of a Boletus was fun to do. We had me behind the camera with Janet, Alison, Alan & Pete all helping with reflectors or umberellas. Hope you like it.
Loved the slug on the stem to.

Sorry I missed this Glynn, I never look at shrooms for some reason . The detail in this is phenomenal and the slug is the bonus. Well done on your EC you fully deserve it, you are a diverse photographer always trying something different,

You asked that I viewed large, I did and found it only marginally larger?

I am not (yet) a macro photographer or a photographer of fungi so my view are only those of a novice but this is excellent and the sort of shot I would to capture, print and mount.
