Ta Bill, good advice, I do tend to just take the shots without too much bother about quality of the specimen, but, youre absolutely right, when possible, use the best.
It was a tad difficult, holding the wood with fungus up to the sun and clamping the camera on too just by hand, without shake and movement, then getting it all right in macro - and I was hoping it would shimmer through the jelly more than it did, so perhaps a thinner, newer specimen would also have been better to gain that effect ........ I'll keep trying, I do like this type of shot.
Cheers
