blackdesertwind, NIIIIIICE photo’s – love the clarity of subject even if it is shrooms lol I dabble a bit in photography myself!! I love the last one, that resembles Coral! Very pretty pictures – they would look nice in a collage framed for your kitchen! I found a really rare site in my backyard a couple years ago:

That mushroom was about the size of my hand spread out, was perfect too. Only lasted a couple days and it and some others nearby began to wilt. I’ve had one single morel mushroom pop in the yard, too – never took a pic but should’ve!

🙁 That is the problem with fungi…they only last so long.
I’ve seen beautiful ones in the woods but since it was dark in the area they were or on a cloudy day the pics didn’t turn out. I don’t like using the flash…hate it actualy. With the orange fungi I had no choice. They are located in a dark area in the woods on the proprety where I live. No sun gets to them at all no matter when during the day.
So it was now or never in this shot.I love mushroom photos! We get the fungi that looks like coral here, too. http://featherdust.critter.net/photographyhtml/pages/Coral%20Fungus.html
We also have a huge patch of chanterells in our back woods! I’ve been eating them all summer. Yum!!

O_o Oh that’s a gorgious pic Jen!
Mine was growing from the ground under leaves…I almost missed it.
So how did you prepare the chanterells?
Soup or something else? 🙂Blackdesertwind wrote:O_o Oh that’s a gorgious pic Jen!

As for the Chanterells, they are so wonderful that I tend to saute them and eat them on rice or with chicken. Cooking them in something would be a shame as you’d lose their more delicate flavor. I’m very honored to have them growing here… I’ve seen them selling for over $25/lb!

Thanks hun. I just wished it would have been sunny like in the last pic. Sunshine makes all the difference between a good picture and a great one. 🙂BDW – Really cool ‘age progression’ shots of those poisonous shrooms!! And Jens pictures were beautiful too! Mushrooms really do make for some great photography. But, I wouldn’t trust eating anything out of the woods myself, not even the morels – too risky when you don’t know enough about them!!
Hey guys I went for a 4 hour walk with my mom up in the hills on monday Oct 4th. Here are some of the pics I took. 🙂

It is! 🙂
This weekend and the next should be even more colorful then last. Unfortunatly I can’t go walk since I’ll have my son this weekend. But you can bet if weather permits I’ll be up there the one after. 😀
Here is what I see in the morning from my patio doors.
