White is always difficult but you did a pretty good job on a nice mushroom.

Great job, Nelepl!
Did you have to lighten up the underside of those?

I'll add some of my own this afternoon...

Actually I was waiting for about 20 min to get the light that I desired, there was no reflectors or any artificial light used for those shots. It was cloudy but sun would break through the clouds sometimes for couple of minutes. So patience for essential for these shots.
