The macro photograph shows a greatly enlarged section of tree bark. It has a deep texture and dark color. In places, tufts of green moss grow on it. Roughly halfway up the photograph, a tiny white mushroom grows out of the vertical bark, with a stem that curves upward and a white cap. The white mushroom contrasts with the dark background.

I like to photograph miniature mushrooms growing on tree trunks. Simply because they are so tiny. Few people notice them. However, my camera has a problem with the color white—it renders everything white as a flat white surface without any detail. Now I've found a setting that eliminates this—I reduce the brightness of the photo so that the white details are beautifully rendered and the dark background creates a good contrast.
