From a recent wander through a local woodland, I found this small landscape of fungi on an old mossy tree stump, which I thought would make a nice subject.
I don't own a macro lens and actually thought that by using the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art lens at f/1.4 would allow me to capture a miniature landscape, whilst allowing to create the bokeh from the out of focus highlights in the background.
Of course, using an aperture f/1.4 meant that the depth of field would be incredibly shallow, so I focused on the largest fungi, as that is the one which was also catching the reflected light from above.
