                           with Andy Wakefield

                           look full of mood, magic and light?

                           In this talk, I will demonstrate the steps I go

                           through to produce illuminated mushroom

                           images, from finding the right subjects, the

                           gear you need, getting the shots, light

                           painting technique, and post processing to

                           make a stunning illuminated mushroom

                           photograph full of wonder and mystery.
