Yep, resinaceum

I was quite taken by these fellas, tucked out behind one of the kilns at work. I've never seen them before. Spray can for scale

Shaggy ink cap, lawyer's wig... edible and delicious, but I think those ones might be past their prime!

A few found recently in the High Alps near Chamonix in conifer forest

 

Feel free to disagree with my Google Lens id's

My old stomping ground. I regularly found a variety of different boletes, hedgehogs, girolles and chanterelles, death trumpets or horn of plenty, constant forest puffballs, an occasional oyster, and once, one marvelous day, a cluster of gomphus clavatus, or pig's ears, hunted to extinction in the British Isles on account of how delicious they are... but still hiding in a few places in mainland Europe. The tastiest mushroom I have ever eaten by a country mile, and I mourn the fact that I'll likely never find them again.

 

Where in the endless forest of the valley were you? North or south facing, what altitude? 

 

Edit:

I had a quick look for a few old mushroom pictures from the Alps, life wasn't so bad when you could just stroll through the woods with the dog for a a few hours just picking a load of wildly-expensive delicacies off the ground.

 

 

 

 

I remember this dish, it's yellow and grey chanterelles on fresh tagliatelle I made with powdered boletus in the pasta dough, fried in butter with garlic.
