Link to previous thread, "show us your Fungi... 1."

Wish I had something better to start this thread off with, but I figure it is early 'shroom season for other locales as well, and maybe some of you other shooters can come up with something better.

The top mushroom is about the size of a small pizza (9" diameter or so (maybe 22-30cm?))

Impressive fungi alpha_in_exile, it's a pity they don't stand out a bit more vs the background, but still nice for "off season".

Also here in Belgiun fungi are very scarce in spring, but I still found this one last weekend while cycling and looking for May pic-a-day shots. Some kind of sulphurfungus at the foot of a dead tree:

Hi BillCB,
Outstanding photo, To my untrained , in mushroom ID eye, they look like Ceasar amanita (sp) which I thought I read was edible. I looked at your website and I really like your landscapes. It looks like you could use this link: http://www.dyxum.com/dforum/topic28010_post293333.html#293333
It describes how to post photos from many sites to Dyxum. I had lots of trouble when I started.
Good luck. Cheers, Bard

Nice shots, pegelli, Bard & Bill.

@pegelli - I'm thinking I might use flash & some PP to make 'em stand out a bit more next time, if I bother to reshoot. Flash, when well controlled, can of course help isolate the subject, but I'm still working on the 'well controlled' part.

Here's another like pegelli's above. I'm told it's called "Chicken of the Woods" for its remarkable similarity to chicken in taste and texture when cooked:

Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) taken in the Royal National Park, Sydney. Quite a poisonous one I believe.
