Off to London’s Garden Cinema to watch Perfect Blue, one of my gateways into Japanese Cinema after I first saw it at the ICA back on its original 1997 UK release. I’ve seen it countless times since then, but not come to think of it in the past 10 years, I believe. Hope it holds up!

Tiny ascos found on a fallen oak leaf, but beautiful with macro photography. I've found these before, so recognised them immediately as Incrucipulum ciliare, confirmed by microscopy - long narrow spores and septate crystal tipped hairs.

Dichostereum effuscatum, a corticioid fungi found in a small copse in Kent on a Salix branch, as confirmed in the Crust and Bracket Fungi Facebook group. Conspicuous branching "dichohypha" structures in the hymenium and verrucose spores. It seems to be the first UK record of this species.

Finally removing the shrinkwrap from a DVD I bought 20 years ago – never thought I’d need to see it for the “research purposes” I am now watching it for.

Resupinate of the day, Phlebiodontia subochracea, a rather luridly coloured specimen on the underside of a field maple log. Yes, the mushroom season is upon us, so don't overlook the crust fungi! #naturephotography #fungiphotography #fungifriends #mycology #crustfungi
