Elegantly constructed image, Dave! Objects of flora perfectly work as the background. Notable that in Ryssia we have shrooms called "boroviki" (plural) from "bor" meaning. "forest".

Artist Reply: Thanks Nikolay, and very interesting , the english word for baravykai is "boletes " "Miškas" is the Lithuanian word for forest .

How I wish I had telescopic arms nowadays, Dave. I'd have to train some lower life form to do my harvesting. Great composition and technique too. I wonder if those are 'magic mushrooms?' :)

Artist Reply: lol ! Yes I think she does have a little "Plastic Sam" in her ... Thank you : ) Those are baravykai mushrooms ... a Lithuanian favorite , quite yummy with potatoes and onion or however you make them
