I Found the Weirdest Mushrooms in the Forest 🍄 (Macro Photography Adventure)

Join me on a macro photography adventure in the woodlands as I explore the hidden world of fungi with my Nikon Z7 and the Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x macro lens. Over two separate days, I visit three different woodland locations in search of unique and special mushrooms – from tiny details to larger subjects – capturing a wide range of creative compositions.

In this video, I share how I find my subjects, work through different compositions, and approach mushroom photography step by step. You’ll see me use both handheld focus stacking and my Manfrotto Element II tripod for stable shots, while I give practical tips on what to look for when photographing fungi in natural environments.

If you’re interested in macro photography techniques, woodland exploration, or simply love mushrooms, this video is packed with inspiration and helpful advice for your own photography journey.
