Damp, Dark Beauty. #mushrooms #fungi #mycology #naturephotography #forestfinds #woodland #macro #outdoors #autumnvibes #wildlife #naturalbeauty #foraging #smartphonephotography #photography
A vertical, close-up photograph of a dense cluster of brown and dark-capped mushrooms growing amongst moss and damp fallen leaves on a forest floor. The caps are slightly wet and reflective, and thin blades of bright green grass grow up around the fungi, adding a splash of colour to the earthy, dark scene. The shallow depth of field keeps the focus sharp on the nearest cluster.

And it was called 'yellow'. #autumnvibes #autumntree #goldenleaves #fallcolours #octobergold #treemajesty #naturephotography #coloursofnature #greatoutdoors #forestfinds #autumnlover #beautifulbritishisles #smartphonephotography #photography
A tall, fully leafed oak tree dominates the frame, showcasing brilliant, golden-yellow autumn foliage against a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds. The tree is enormous and majestic, with a dark, textured trunk and visible branches through the dense leaves. In the background to the left, a dark green coniferous tree provides contrast, and on the right, lighter green leaves are visible. The ground beneath the tree is covered in fallen brown leaves and patchy grass.

Ever stumbled across Tree Snot on a woodland walk? 🌳😄
This gooey little find is just one of the many hidden wonders that make the forest so magical.
It reminds us how intricate and overlooked woodland life can be.

Strange Jelly Discovered!!!
A fascinating find: the gelatinous egg mass of the Mottled Sedge caddisfly (Glyphotaelius pellucidus) laid on a hazel leaf over hanging a small brook.

OK, so I just found out it's International Mushroom Day today apparently 🤷🏻🍄 #internationalmushroomday2025 #mushroom #fungi #mycology #forestfinds #woodland #naturephotography #moss #decay #loglife #autumnvibes #macro #closeupphotography #smartphonephotography #photography #irishnature
A close-up, low-angle photograph of a large, brown-capped mushroom growing out of a moss-covered, decaying log in a forest. The mushroom has a wide, wavy cap with deep, visible gills underneath and a short, sturdy stem. The surrounding area is dimly lit and blurred, with dark branches and green foliage in the background, emphasizing the texture and form of the fungus.

Spot the Toadstool! #flyagaric #amanitamuscaria #mushroom #fungi #mycology #naturephotography #forestfloor #autumnvibes #redandwhite #wildlifephotography #forestfinds #smartphonephotography #photography #naturelover
A close-up, low-angle photograph of two striking Fly Agaric mushrooms (Amanita muscaria) nestled amongst dark, tangled undergrowth and fallen leaves. The mushroom in the foreground is sharply focused, showing its broad, vibrant red cap speckled with distinctive white flecks, resting atop a tall, creamy-white stem. A second, slightly out-of-focus mushroom with a similar red cap is visible just behind and above the first, framed by a thicket of brown, crisscrossing twigs and branches. The lighting is dim, suggesting a deep forest setting, giving the image a moody, almost magical feel.

Small mushroom on a fairly slender stalk growing from a water saturated piece of dead wood debris, with brown, dust-like coloring heaviest at the cap's top, extending in rays to the cap's margin. A maple leaf that is red and green can be seem in the water on the ground behind the mushroom.
