Hola, setero! Today I share some mushroom impressions from the last summer. Everything was seen and photographed at my countryside place or near it - about 100km to the south from St.Petersburg. Two different camera setups was used (dut to my camera suddenly broke at the 1st week of July): Canon 5d + Sigma 150mm, or Canon 350D + Tamron 60mm.
This might be a Xerócomus subtomentósus, but I am not 100% sure. Took this photo due to this mushroom's fascinating polypore structure.
Caviar? No! Winter mushrooms. But very very tiny, just popped up. I bet no identifying app will tell you exactly what it is. They have a limited medium-sized area where they may bring reliable results. Very limited.
'Chicken of the woods'. A great edible mushroom you should be aware of. I wasnt capable of identifying it myself - got some experts helping hand with that!
Young tiny Puffballs right at the start of their life-cycle. I would love to harvest them, but location is non eco-friendly: a centrall park in the metropolis, just 2 minutes by foot from 24 hour cars driving route. Ofc they appeared on a tree, not grew from the soil, but still eco non-friendly, so its better not taking any risks consuming these.
Look who suddenly apeared in my fungi folder! Ok, I understood the hint and will introduce it to you. He might be an exhibitionist, would love to present himself to the publik. Definitely not a shy sort of a person!
Russula sp. (Britlegill mushroom) - this one is edible. Good option is to fry it on a pan with onion and olive oil. Perfectly fits to potatoes and mayonnaise.

Oysters, a good old (and edible) friend. But they are hard option, if you want to to take a picturesque photo. Most of the time they are the same and not too foto-friendly (maybe, except of the younger ones).
A little bodegon consisting of Ugly milkcap, little froggie and a green moss savanna. (We didnt harvested ugly milkcaps this summer, cause I found only three copies of it! Very sadly... they just decided not to pop up at their usual place. Otherwise, they are extremely hard to find - perfect mimicry and drowned into the soil and dead leaves, so its no-go, really).
And the last one for today. Leccinum auracantium - no comments needed, Well-known respectable 1st grade mushroom in Europe and Northern hemisphere. A good option to say goodbye. I wish you good luck -- and Good Hunting!

Agaricus
no, no Agaricus here. this redhead is useful, edible one!
Your mushrooms are very extraordinary, they look very beautiful.
I haven't found a round mushroom like the one in your picture.
The caviar mushroom looks like a Langsat fruit bunch in my garden, it looks very unique ...
looks like you spent several hours on the hunt ,,
but the all mushrooms look very enchanting ,,
those are from different days, my friend. It was long a while, that I have no mushroom hunt. winter is not a season for shrooms here...
I'm sorry about your camera. Those photographs are amazing. The little friend posed very well for the publik.
that thing with camera indeed spoiled half of my summer... happily I had a spare camera (tho 350D is not a good device, by modern standards) and a second macro lens compatible to it. anyway, by the mid-August I fixed my main camera, and the price of the fix was rediculously small... just the time and thats it. thanks for stopping by!
It is great to be able to solve the problems. When it's worth it. Well done!
well, I simply dont have other option - to throw it away and buy a cool shiny and upgraded new one. I am a jobless since January 2020, you know...
Yes, I understand. We are war heroes!
Малыши прям глаз порадовали)
Жду открытия сезона 2021!
которые? белые или красные? мне впрочем и те и те нравятся... но белые потрогательней будут, имхо
Мне все нравятся! Я просто настолько уже жду Сморчков, что каждая новая фотка грибов, как поход в лес для меня)
пост сморчков прибыл. прошу им насладиться! увы, не мой :/
Увидел! Отличные грибочки)
Главное чтоб у нас они не промелькнули за пару дней, а то я чувствую, что из зимы мы шагнем сразу в лето...
Save some for me, I've got the perfect recipe. So many different varieties from this adventure.
