On Monday we post mushrooms. Enjoy the gorgeous gills. 🌿🌱 #alliteration #mushroommonday #nature #photography #macro

A huge mass of very small mushrooms on a log. Each is about 3mm across, cream colored, and looking like a fan with tiny ribs. They all look like a bunch of overlapping tiny fans.

A pair of fuzzy orange mock oyster mushrooms grow on the side of a burnt log, its charred wood provides lots of little crevices to emerge from. All photos by me

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.

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.

Hygrocybe/waxcap photo day 39: Dirty but still beautiful! Waxcaps grow in dark soil in the wet season, which can make taking pretty photographs of them challenging. #fungifriends #fungi #mycology #naturephotography
