The photographer story about this beautiful photo is :
"I spotted this chap on the verge in my road on the way home from the school run! Straight back out again with camera...then back home to get stuff to kneel on and to rest the camera on :) All the neighbours undoubtedly think I'm a nutter, kneeling with my face on a wet lawn and my bottom in the air :) So...the photo is taken in Surrey, UK, with the EOS7D and a Sigma 105mm macro lens. Ever so slightly desaturated the greens and yellows in PS to allow the amazing 'hat' to stand out. (Oh, and should add that the poor mushroom is no more :( I think he was decapitated by a lawnmower)"
