NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/4 S @ 32.5 mm, 62 sec at f/5.6, ISO 3200 x 8 Frames

Out walking the dog again and came across some more ghost mushrooms (Omphalotus nidiformis)

This is one of two small clusters at this spot, which is literally only a few meters from a main road (Pittwater Road in East Ryde here in Sydney)

Headed back there that night to confirm. There is a lot of ambient light here (there’s two street lights close by). So I had to shield them with my camera backpack and an umbrella from the car. Plus the full moon in the other direction so we had some crazy white balance going on

This image is a focus stack of 8 frames (each a minute @ f/5.6 and ISO 3200). Surprisingly very little noise or hot pixels so nothing to clean up in post

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.
