Walking through the woods saw some nice mushrooms, remembered this challenge. Went and got the camera and shot away. Background is a black cloth propped up with random sticks.

I like the composition but this image could do with a little better light on the mushrooms and I can see editing marks around each of the storks. I also feel this is more out of focus than soft focus (MHO)
What a great title! Now that you've reminded me, I think I've forgotten to remember those days. May I mambu dog-face to the banana patch? Sorry, I'm off to the Bahamas!
