Mouldy cake

Gimme a break. It's raining. Felt like experimenting a little. (I know LordV has done this a couple of times)

Cleaning out the fridge, found some mouldy cake. Ever wondered what mould looks like at 1:1, 3:1, and 5:1 lifesize? I did.

Sounds disgusting at first, but I think at this scale it's beautiful. Kind of like some alien forest.

Had a crack at focus stacking some shots. Failed terribly. Again. These are all single shots.

1:1 lifesize:

Those are great, never really spend much time looking at mould. Generally it'a an "Eww!" and into the bin. I think I'll check under our sofa later, the kids bound to have a sandwich stashed somewhere.

That first 5:1 shot is really neat. Any chance of lightening up the last shot? It might be pretty cool too, but it's too dark to see anything.

Cool shots Troy.

Looks awesome,never seen mold like that Very cool.

Very interesting perspective.
