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.August 31, 2010 at 5:04 pm #690048I 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? 🙂September 1, 2010 at 1:38 am #690050Blackdesertwind wrote:O_o Oh that’s a gorgious pic Jen!

Soup or something else? 🙂They grow everywhere here! Some are yellow, some white. They always show up in August/September, here. 😀


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. 🙂September 13, 2010 at 6:24 pm #690055Anonymous
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!!
October 7, 2010 at 12:07 am #690056October 7, 2010 at 3:11 am #690057Wow, love the 1st and 2nd the most. Great shots! I bet Canada is very pretty this time of year. 🙂

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. -
