Infrared Photography – Sole mushroom rising from the forest floor
Among the Oak leaves lays a little mushroom fruiting body that has risen from the ground. It shines as its reflecting IR light not to dry out. The leaves on the ground have lost their ability to do what the living mushroom is doing, by reflecting this infrared light. It stops the mushroom from being oxidized and dehydrated.
These photos are my posts for #fungifriday
A little closer, you can see its broken veil on the stem, I did disturb it to see what the underside looked like. Probably already dropped its spores.

I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by Life Pixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to see light in the Infrared [IR] around 1300 NM wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 NM wavelength.
I carry many filters on me to make the photos you see in my blog, these filters screw on my lens and help me isolate certain wavelengths for certain scenes. These filters can be IR / UV pass-through filters to assist me get a natural photo taking out the UV and IR light. Or I may use a Infrared pass-through filter capture just IR light. I can do the same with IR light as well, though I need some better filters which they can cost a few hundred dollars for true Ultraviolet pass through filters. So for right now I have B + W 403 bandpass filters that still allow some IR light in, due to their cheaper material.
There are also exotic glasses made of sapphire and germanium I am open to working with to replace my silica glass hot mirror with a material that allows even longer wavelengths of infrared to enter my cameras sensor. Special sensors, lenses and filters of that material would be needed as well, so it would be a big project but one that may give some even more unique photography results.
Addresses below to help me buy better camera equipment and support me to travel to locations to do photo and video and overall great blogs in new places. I would be happy to list some of the contributors in my posts for donations that help me along the way.

thanks @nevlu123 for the animation
Nice photograph. Which background is this
@adenijiadeshina I don't understand your question but thanks...

I didn't see the mushroom at first. I actually really like how the leaves turned out.
@ewkaw hah yeah it's a little sole mushroom blending in.
Me too they sure look great
