It looks like my camera has started to hibernate... I have not photographed anything in December. But maybe later this week as the forecast looks promising for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Meanwhile, here's another portrait of a mushroom from early September. It's one of my favorite amanita photos from this year.

Finding its own way

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi #moss #green

A close up photograph of a small mushroom, centered in the image, growing on an almost vertical wall of bright green moss. The stem of the mushroom grows out horizontally to the left and turns up just at the cap, the bend in the stem hidden. The cap is the normal way up. The stem is brown and quite thin and the cap striated and bell shaped, also brown but lighter towards the edge. The mushroom and a small sliver of the moss are in focus, the rest of the photo is a large, green blur.

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi #macro

A close up photograph of a mushroom with concave cap, which together with the stem gives almost the shape of a parabolic antenna. The mushroom grows on a dead log, which if mostly out of focus, apart from a very thin strip. The gills of the mushroom are reddish brown and the stem lighter, almost whit towards the bottom. The background is an almost uniform light brown/grey.

Puffballs

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi

A close-up photograph of a cluster of three puffballs growing on a dead tree. The tree and the puffballs form a diagonal across the image, ending at the lower right corner. The puffballs are brown with an open hole in the centre. Two of them sit close together towards the left and the third one a bit apart. A single bent straw of grass grow behind the middle one. The background is soft and blurry, mostly green but changing to tones of blue near the right edge.

Currently in Bristol for a business trip. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather these past days which has made traveling a bit more tiresome, but I am really grateful that my work allows me to go on trips like this.

Anyway, here is one strange looking mushroom I came across a while back.

#mushroom #fungi #nature #forest #fallentree

A photo of a mushroom. A tiny mushroom. Thin brown stalk with a brown cap perfectly round and umbrella. The mushroom is growing out of a fallen tree. The wet dark brown gnarled wood is littered with green moss and the tree expertly describes how tiny the mushroom is.

In Welsh folklore, the little fairies often eat poisonous mushrooms and a "fairy butter" found in the crevices of limestone rocks. The fairies use illusions to make the food's appearance and taste become more appetizing. More charmingly, fairy gloves are made from foxglove flowers.

Fungi on fungi for #fungifriday.

These striking filaments are the reproductive structures of Spinellus fusiger, a parasitic fungus commonly known as bonnet or pin mould. It lives by infecting host mushrooms, producing thread-like sporangiophores that end in minute spore capsules, giving the mushrooms a fuzzy, pincushion-like appearance.

#photography #photo #fotografie #photographie #fotografia #naturelovers #naturephotography #nature #fungi #mushroom #mosstodon

A single, slender mushroom emerges from a lush bed of moss and lichen. Its dark brown, conical cap is covered in a striking halo of fine, radiating white filaments that resemble delicate hairs or threads spreading outwards in all directions. These filaments are the reproductive structures of Spinellus fusiger, a parasitic fungus commonly known as bonnet or pin mould. They catch the light, creating a bright, spiky effect around the mushroom's cap. The mossy ground is a vivid shade of green, with soft textures and various pale green lichens scattered throughout. The background is softly blurred with green and brown tones.

Close up study of a mushroom

#nature #naturephotography #mushroom #fungus #fungi #macro

A close up photograph of a small mushroom. The is nothing else visible in the photo. The cap of the mushroom is quite steeply conical with a rounded top, and edges at the bottom flaring out, giving it a bell shape. The ends of the gills are visible at the edge. It is light brown with radial stripes/creases that are darker, and the cap is lighter around the edge, almost white. The stem is thin and a bit blurry. The background is entirely blurry and mostly dark but a lighter brown shade towards the left.

I’ll just be quietly daydreaming under my umbrella.

#mushroom #fungi #quiet #hidingfromtheworld #nature

A photo of a mushroom surrounded by moss. It is a wall of green moss, with a mushroom growing out of the side. It has a medium thick stem, brown at the bottom fading to yellow white. The cap is shaped like a rounded top umbrella. Brown at the top fading to white. The ribs under the cap are visible and symmetrical and white. I want to disappear and live here for a while.

Despite sporulating many of these at #Blissfest2025 I seem to be still, at some level, #ContemplatingPupation and have no choice but to let the new life forms join the swarm of living organisms that form myself. They help ensure that I always have a wide spectrum of colors and diversity of being, especially on Whimsday

Am I gaining xp towards a dryad skill tree? What normally happens when a wild magic condensate spends extra time in nature? So many questions to contemplate...

This enby taking a mirror selfie, thighs and up. They are wearing a sage green tank top, that can barely contains the nips. They're also wearing their salamander pendant and black cargo pants with spacious pockets. Their arm tattoo is slightly visible but obscured behind their torso. You can see some of their torso tattoo on the other side, with the mushrooms and wildflowers merging with the trail of sprouts growing from various nooks on their body. There are too many to enumerate, but there is clearly a concentration of them at the top part of the head amidst the hair. Some have googly eyes, and there are a couple of glow-in-the-dark ducks as well. The mushroom one has a bowtie and a googly eye, and a few other sprouting plants have googly eyes as well. Some flowers, some vines, even a pink and blue butterfly. They continue down the hair, and also emerge from under the crop top. All along the shoulder straps and near the edge of the breasts. Various colors are represented: red and yellow, green and white, pink and white, bright deep red and green, blue and purple, etc. A pink and green viney one emerges from under the crop top traveling downwards parallel to the soft "gutters" formed by their abdominals. A black and white boyshorts waistband peeks out from behind the cargo pants as do yet even more sprouts. The color scheme here is more limited with a lot of green, pink, blue and some white and yellow.
The enby is taking a selfie from roughly face level pointed downward. Their non-binary pendant day collar and salamander pendant necklace draw the eye down the center, between the breasts. There is no ignoring the blooming life failing to be contained by their sage green crop top and black cargo pants. An adorable blue glow-in-the-dark duck sits at one of the shoulder straps next to a green and white winding viney flower. Their other strap is obscured by their curls but a green and yellow sprout is present there also. A red and yellow fern like one sits next to one of the eldritch tentacles that exist at the root of their breast coming from the portal in the shoulder. A green vine-like bloom travels downward from under the crop top, toward the navel turning pink as it goes. Various sprouts decorate the crevices between the cargo pants and flesh, various shades of green, pink, and yellow dominate the spectrum here, with one adding in some blue ombre with pink.
This enby taking a mirror selfie of their upper body. They are wearing a sage green tank top, and despite the ribbed texture, it barely contains the nipples. Their arm tattoos are in sharp definition. The potion bottle nestled among the leaves at the wrist, the owl with the portal and the two flying insectoids fluttering out. The toad by the bicep, looking at you with a smile, the Ichorite crystals and Eldritch tentacles emerging from the portals in the ravens wings at the shoulder with some mushrooms escaping up top. All visible with good detail. The most notable things, however, are all the different blooming sprouts. Too many to enumerate, but most of them are in the top part of the head amongst the hair. Some have googly eyes, and there are a couple of glow-in-the-dark ducks as well. The mushroom one has a bowtie and a googly eye, and a few other sprouting plants have googly eyes as well. Some flowers, some vines, even a pink and blue butterfly. They continue down the hair, and also emerge from under the crop top. All along the shoulder straps and near the edge of the breasts. Various colors are represented: red and yellow, green and white, pink and white, bright deep red and green, blue and purple, etc. Near one of the breasts is a red sphere with its own single googly eye as well, staring directly at the viewer.

From last week, a slime-mould getting ready to release spores. Best guess is it's a Hemitrichia species.

This time of year is so interesting for interesting people interested in interesting things. Saw so much
#fungi today, and here are three of the best, plus a really interesting gall

1) Upright Coral fungus
2) Candlesnuff fungus
3) Snowy waxcap
4) Common spangle gall wasp's gall

A pink-orange fungus growing vertically. It resembles very upright coral with little branches coming off at the top
Some thin, pointed vertical fungus growing on wood. They are individual stems, black like coal dust at the base and a little way up the stem, turning to a powdery white
A silky, ivory white round headed fungus in grass. Almost jellyfish like. It has a translucent quality.
Close up of a dark brown oak leak with a number of circular galls with a circular raised centre ... think circular fried eggs of poppers on clothes. They are a pale yellow/off white, with speckles. You can't see them but each raised centre has a larvae inside.

We're about to take off and the person in the window seat hasn't shown up, so I might be able to take some snaps during the flight 🤩 See you on the other side!

A close-up of small fungi growing on a weathered, textured tree trunk in a shaded woodland setting. The fungi feature pale, almost translucent caps with slender, brownish stems. The background is softly blurred, showcasing the lush greenery and dappled light of the forest floor, creating a serene and natural atmosphere. The image highlights the delicate and intricate details of the fungi amidst the rustic charm of the forest environment.

for #FungiFriday the Shaggy Mane (Coprinus comatus)!

also called the Lawyers Wig, this mushroom slowly dissolves into ink, a process known as deliquescing. it’s edible when young, but turns bitter and becomes liquid soon after harvesting. traditionally thought to cause symptoms of alcohol poisoning or a severe hangover when consumed with alcohol, but recent evidence suggests while other Coprinus species like the Inky cap have the chemical responsible, he Shaggy Mane does not!

#art #fungi #DigitalArt #mushroom #natureart #artist #MastoArt #artistsonmastodon #mushtodon

a digital artwork of the shaggy mane mushroom. this mushroom is white, with scales that make it look shaggy, and as it matures becomes black at the base and drips with an ink substance. the artwork depicts a young mushroom, still in a conical shape with minimal black ink, and a mature specimen, unfurled to reveal a long white stem, with an inky base. they are drawn within a white frame, on a green background with leaf motifs.
