The Stemonitis fruiting bodies (Sporangia) had shed most of their spores and were collapsing into a tangled heap.
By moving the two fill flashes around, to the sides and/or behind (main flash on L-bracket), I was able to show some of the fine structures.The first image is with the Kiron 105mm at f16. the remainder are with my reversed Schneider HM40, at f16, on the Kiron x1.5 TC, giving a FOV 6mm wide. Some cropping has been done for composition purposes.
This, fourth set completes the story of the development, ripening and death (apart from the viable spores) of these slime mould fruiting bodies. This organism is closer to animals than to plants.
