    ID help please

    Cheers for the help, oh well at least I was right with the ID lol, I'm getting better at least. Has this fungus got more frequent over the years? is this due to climate, or become more noticed?.

  7. I've been following this very good tread for a while now but not posted before but as I seem to be getting into fungi hunting, I thought I would add these, my ID's are getting there but I get unstuck now and then. Xylaria hypoxylon Flammulina velutipes An eaten Laccaria amethystea
  8. That was mad! made me laugh all those guys in suits standing around watching.
  9. Nice one Drew!
  10. Its ok mate.
  11. That will be the ones you can see the channels getting wider as they eat the phloem tissue. Are you on about other cut wood? or living? They genaraly feed on stressed living trees, not sure about, say a log pile?. Shothole borer, Ambrosia beetle This might help.
  12. Looks like Shothole borer beatle, the beatle bores in leaves it eggs, then when the eggs hatch they channel their way out under the bark, if you remove the bark you might find their channels they look pretty impressive!, they feed on dead or dying fruit trees, but they feed on ash aswell.
  13. I like relaxing making stuff from greenwood. Although since the little ones come along I've not made much.
  14. A couple more. Flammulina velutipes Laccaria amethystea
  15. I managed to get out for a bimble on Saturday morning in a nice wood near me, heres a few shots I took. Pluteus cervinus? Trametes suaveolens????? Found these guys hidding under this Beech tree, Lycoperdon echinatum?

  17. I dont have Photoshop (I must get it though) I just uploaded the photo to my Flickr account and edited it using Picknik, its a free service and isn't too bad to be honest.
  18. This is a good tread! and some good tips, one I try to stick to is to crop in the camera not on the pc, by that I mean compose the shot before taking the picture, it slows you down and makes you look at the edges of the shot and around your subject. The other is if your using a DSLR always buy the best quality lens you can afford and the faster the F stop better. Everyone adjusts their images in this digital world we live in, its no different than when film was used (I still try and shoot film when I can) burning in and holding back parts of an image to achieve the wanted result. Just no smell of the chemicals!. Sharpening an image in an image software, or ajusting the contrast and exposure are the main ones folk use. I sharpened your image Albedo hope you dont mind? just to show a small rework. original sharpened.
