Macrofungi from the Eifel


Fungus

Recommended Posts

This afternoon I returned from a three days trip to the German Eifel where I monitored some of the plots I have been visiting monthly during autumn for 8 years in a row.

 

Photo 1/2. In an old beech woodland on partially buried beech wood : Agrocybe firma, my first ever find of this rare Red List species.

Photo 3. In a mixed woodland with oak, hornbeam and hazel : a common species on thin branches and twigs of deciduous trees : Marasmiellus ramealis.

Photo 4. In a spruce forest noticed from quite a distance at the damaged base of an old spruce : Ptychogaster albus, the anamorph of Oligoporus ptychogaster, with guttation droplets.

Sweet finds gerrit, tell me do you ever carry a lightwieght foldable light reflector? that last image is cleary in those dark dank situations we often find when shooting these things. i have also found a petzl head torch to offer a natural light that helps in these situations.

 

i find it hard these days to force myself to carry more than i really need to!:001_smile:

Nice pictures Gerrit. When I lived in Germany (Dortmund and Herford) that was one of my favourite places to spend my 'free' time. Pity I was so interested in tasting the Moselle wine when instead I should have been spending a little more time in the countryside!!

No, I never do and never use flash light either. These photo's were taken handheld with my Canon PowerShot SX230 HS digital camera.
