Here's another attempt at some "shelter-in-place" macro photography.
This is a small mushroom I found in my yard. I held it in place with a third hand clamp and set a red pot from our kitchen behind it to serve as the background. I used an LED ring light for lighting. Shot with a Canon EOS R, 100mm macro, and a 25mm extension tube. I used a rail to move the camera for focus stacking. It may not show up at this size, but I didn't quite gather enough slices to avoid getting some blurry areas. I'm pretty sure I'd want a geared rail if I was going to get serious with this.
Any thoughts are welcome.
