When the woodland floor erupts

[David Humphries]

Was out with the boys pond dipping at a local common this morning.

 

Whilst keeping a watchful eye on the young budding ecologists, i took a wee look around the pond.

 

wasn't really out on the hunt, so to speak.

 

But tis the season, what what...........

 

Amanita muscari - Fly Agaric

Amanita rubescens - the Blusher

Russula claroflava & a pretty darn big un Id'd Bolete.

Leccinum carpini - Hornbeam Bolete

Laccaria amethystina - Amethyst deceiver

Amanita fulva - the Tawny Grisette

It's been clinically proven that there is at least 42 minutes a day, when I'm not actually on the hunt, I'll have you know Bully

I reckon your biggest issue is the point of focus and aperture.

 

tell me do you have a focus/AE lock feature? and what is the maximum aperture of your lens at maxime wide settings?

[David Humphries]

Looks a little bit like one of the Gloeo's, but i think pores are wrong.

 

Whadya reckon then Hammy ?
