Lichenomphalia umbellifera, my obsession with this lichen continues! They are all so unique. Reminder: lichens are a symbiotic combination of fungi and algae. Most take the form of their algae component but this one reflects its mushroom side. #fungifriends#fungi#mycology#naturephotography

For something different. Alaska mushrooms! When I moved to AK over 15 years ago one of the first things I became fascinated with were the mushroom. I'm not an expert at naming them (I'm learning), but I have expert skills in laying on my belly to photograph them. Pro tip, wear rain gear.
