These mushrooms came in my CSA bag this week. 
This post is just to see how my new camera is behaving.  I decided to get one of those little Nikon Coolpix point-and-shoot jobbies so I will never again miss a photo op (friends, you've been forewarned).  My big camera, a Canon eos Digital Rebel, is fantastic and has a big ol' flash and a couple of lenses, but it's heavy and kind of a pain to take out easily.  My iphone is pretty great in a pinch, but there's no flash.  I thought the 
Coolpix S570 might be a good compromise: it has a rechargeable battery and built-in flash, and when you turn it off it collapses the lens into no space at all.  And the price is right.  Here are a couple of photos I took right after I turned it on for the first time.  Not bad....

Does it look like an olive in the middle of this banana bread? It's actually a chopped-up date!

Those are very alien looking mushrooms. The pictures look good. I have an old nikon, but haven't yet figured out how to make my indoor pictures look good.
Not a big mushroom person, but the photo looks good. I am shopping for a Nikon D5000. Been wanting one for a while now.
