Hello Bob The lens and camera seen well suited . The photos are great, I like the second one the best because of the contrast in colors.

Good stuff. That's the great thing about digital models that can use the older manual focus film lenses.
Do you know what the ISO was on these shots?

Thanks guys for the comments.

The ISOs were in order from top to bottom, F8/1600, F8/1600, F3.5/400, F3.5/1600 and F3.5/1600. These are JPEG Fine, too lazy to shoot NEF.

Pretty impressive Bob, from a noise standpoint at a high ISO. I might be able to get close quality-wise shooting raw with the D300 but certainly not shooting jpeg.

Hey Bob
I still think fungi (and tree stumps) are among the best photographic subjects - we used to get quite a few on here at one time. And birches attract the fungi - even when they're alive. Something to do with symbiotic underground mycaelia (itself a type of fungus) that lives off the birch roots, and in turn feeds ground living ones on the surface.
Regards - John

You learn something new every day. I always wondered why birch seemed to host fungi more often than other trees.
