A close-up, vertical shot of a tree trunk in a forest, densely covered in vibrant green moss. A large cluster of shelf-like bracket fungi, coloured in shades of beige, cream, and light orange, climbs up the centre of the trunk. The fungi appear soft and illuminated, contrasting with the dark bark. The background is a cool-toned, out-of-focus blur of vertical tree trunks, creating a depth of field that highlights the textures in the foreground.

Close up of mushrooms on a mossy forest floor. Three toadstools grow in a clump on the left - they are pale brown and white, with flat caps dotted with white spots like a deer. The darker brown stems have a white frill halfway down.

#fungifriday Photos from earlier this week.

I think these guys are Panthercaps, Amanita pantherina.

There are several similar looking ones on iNaturalist, but only the Panthercap had the white frill bit on the stem..

Large, weathered puffball mushroom sitting in the grass of a churchyard. Its surface is pale and pitted, with a chunk missing from the front. A smaller broken piece lies in front, with gravestones and green grass blurred in the background.

A giant puffball in the churchyard, well past its prime and clearly munched by something, but still a striking find in the morning grass.

A close-up, low-angle shot of a parasol mushroom with a distinctive scaly brown cap and a long, textured stalk. The mushroom stands on a forest floor covered in brown leaves, pine needles, and green ivy. The background is a soft blur of green and white, suggesting a bright, sunlit forest.
