POTD CHALLENGE: FLASH

I am still using photos from my Twin Falls hike. The weather has been November-like, making it impossible to even get out for photography. I don't "do" people-pics where flash would be used a lot. This little fungus was taken with my 18-200mm lens. It was on the dark side of the tree; I didn't want to point and flash head-on, so I tried this from the side and, amazingly, the results were as I had hoped! Sooc, hand-held.

Oh, I really like this! The lighting with the flash is perfect; when you click to enlarge the photo, you can see all the nice glistening drops on the fungus. Great shot, ML.
