Re: Shooting upside down? Use an "L" bracket.

I wonder if it would be worth extending your fungi interest a little to try cultivating them (in addition to going out and shooting in the wild). At least those would grow where you want, or could be re-positioned to be more accessible.

Most results from a casual online search are about growing edible fungi which probably isn't what you want. But there are people growing inedible/poisonous ones too. Most of these are for "recreational" purposes (druggies) with species like fly agaric and psilocybin etc, but the techniques described should transfer to most varieties.

Could be an interesting sideline to pursue in it's own right. Just a thought...
