A low-angle photograph of a single mushroom with saturated red, speckled with numerous small, white pyramidal warts that stands out vividly against a muted background.
This striking color is the only vibrant element in the photograph. The stem is thick, pure white, and smooth, providing a stark contrast to the red cap. It's relatively short and substantial, rising from the dark ground.
Everything surrounding the mushroom, the immediate foreground and the background foliage, is rendered in a monochromatic palette of deep grays, blacks, and whites.
