Default Some special mushrooms
Went photo scouting with some friends and found these fuzzy looking shrooms, thought I'd share them with you. Hope you enjoy.

Great shots. They remind me of little umbrellas. It's like they are stuck on with glue with that white stuff at the base. Thanks for sharing.

Very interesting, and well photographed, mushrooms. Unfortunately we don't get such a colorful variety in Texas, and it's been so dry I haven't seen any in ages. Too bad; I like to photograph them too.

Hi Michael, those are so delicate and colorful. Probably not good to eat though..
Great Captures, well composed.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.
