During a walk around Founder’s Way Point in Marsh Creek State Park, Chester County, PA, I took these images.
As you can see, this is a great area to both hike/walk or mountain bike!

A couple of days ago, I was walking through this area of Struble trail, and saw this series of large orange tree mushrooms. Unfortunately, I did not have my tripod for the required shot that I had in my head.
Fast forward today…
This is a series of (3) exposures for the HDR work, but shot at F22 with my Canon EF 28-135 IS USM lens.
These specimens range in size. The one on the left, mid frame, is easily 12 inches long!
I’m also still trying to identify this species of tree mushroom, so if you know, please contact me!
2014-Nov-26 16:48 – Having now skimmed through several of the References listed, I think this is either an “Artist’s Conk, Artist’s Bracket, Flacher Lackporling” Ganoderma applanatum (Fomes applanatus) or a “Sulfur Shelf, Crab of the Woods, Chicken of the Woods, sulphur polypore”, Laetiporus sulphureus (Polyporus sulphureus).
2014-Nov-28 17:03 – By request, I have added another images of these specimens .

In early September, I got a chance to work with Jaimielynn Cooper of County Lines Magazine to shoot the October cover at Wolff’s Apple House in Media, PA.
After an hour or so of looking around at the various fruits and vegetables that were available to us, Jaimielynn & I put together various scenes, took a couple of cell phone shots, and sent them back to the editors for review.
I thought to my self how much things had changed.
Gone are the days of shooting a test shot with a Polaroid…
The image slowly came together, and we captured this –
In the days leading up to the October release date, there were a few magazine sightings!
So check your news stands to get your copy!!
Thanks again to Jaimielynn Cooper and the other wonderful folks over at County Lines Magazine for this opportunity!
