A long time ago, when I was just starting to enjoy taking photos with something better than the simple point-and-shoot cameras, I was always trying to find the smallest possible mushrooms. It was amazing to be able to shoot them and they would actually be in focus, and then I could see clearly how they looked like on the big PC screen.
Years later, after another camera upgrade, I still enjoy it. But I am not so picky anymore. I just shoot them all - big and small! :D
They all have their own charm. The delicate tiny ones on their skinny legs that you really have to look hard to see, and the big ones that act like kings of the forest, with colours, spots, and lovely gills.
Today, a few of the little ones will have their 5 minutes of blockchain fame :)

These were all shot in Polish woods. And while they are not the smallest I have ever found, they are right up there. It is also not easy to spot them when you have a beautiful forest around and all the big splashy ones are looking at you from a distance and you just want to shoot them all.

Here is a little speedy bonus - a Woolf Spider was looking for his next meal. They do not build spiderwebs. They run on the ground looking for prey instead.
