Close 😉 Brighton, myxo’s don’t like being transported at such stage in development but the odd one you get lucky 🍀

I set this up at home on my balcony to avoid fox theft. In my city, a very real possibility 🫠

It was focus bracketed yes, using a flash and diffuser. I use OM but to be honest you can achieve quality with many of the brands / macro lenses. In built bracketing makes life easier these days. Extension tubes helped me get a bit closer with this image. Best of luck!

I’d like it to benefit Job seekers, low income, ND crew, people receiving PIP and of course Myco goblins and followers. August the 1st (anyone that can get a Friday off work) let’s go! xxX

Thanks to help nature thrive and the people’s postcode lottery for making this happen! #macrophotography

This hasn’t been made public by the RP’s yet. It will sell out when they do, grab a ticket or tell a friend.

For all skill levels regardless of equipment, you can just bring a phone 🤳📸
