 Very delicate muchrooms that appeared overnight in a nearby forest...thousands, most less than 2 cm in diameter, and most (like these) very delicately attached to a very tiny twig. Cropped, held in place with a small, flexible clamp (Plamp)and illuminated from the side and behind with natural lighting. Usual PS steps with levels, curves, unsharp with minor editing to remove 4-5 small brown spots on mushroom caps.

I'd like to see more contrast between the background and the stick, but you did pick an interesting subject that works well as a macro.

The brilliant white against the pitch black background is very effective for this shot

Such delicate beauty. This feels almost like a Japanese print to me.

would have over lit from above to get the shrooms to really glow

very interesting subject, i like the comp, wishing the white was lighted a bit softer, making them not so harsh/almost burnt.
