Hey, the season is up now (at least in the northern hemisphere) and I thought of kicking off the definitive thread for fungi (aka mushrooms).
So here are three of my latest catches:

All three shot with Nikon 10.5/2.8 fisheye!
And should be best viewed in the largest size available (click through the images)

Please join me in this thread to start the largest collection of mushrooms on the web :wink:

Nelepl,

I really liked the first one, we could see how kick they grow in your capture.

These are two of the last, heavy rain, week:

Exotic catch, gmazza!
But the first two images seem a bit underexposed (~1 stop). Did you check the histogram?

Great! (pun intended :wink: )
I've only stumbled across some small fry:

Unfortunately it was so dark that I had to use f/2.8 and ISO 400.
