Many of us walk in the woods and casually snap a photo of a brightly colored mushroom and are happy as a lark or a toadstool, as the case may be. These photos, especially with modern cell phones, can work out just fine to capture the moment or be sent out through social media. However, if you desire to enlarge your images or print them, it is best to have a good camera and a good technique. It is better still to use a tripod for longer exposures or while taking multiple photos, which you later compress into a single image; a technique called “photo-stacking.”
