Mushrooms
The photos that I have are all opportunistic - on a walk I might see a bird or animal or plant or interesting rock - and I will stop and take time to photograph - sometimes that has meant parking myself on a rock or wet ground for an hour to watch and wait. If a picture of something I don't know - which is most of the time - I take time to read about the topic. On certain topics I have found that over time - even years - I have collected numerous pictures, and that becomes a discussion point on these pages.
Mushrooms - I have lots of pictures - some I like a lot. I have not done so well with naming the mushrooms I have photographed. Finally I came across a reference that I think is well written, and puts a damper on any hope that I might reasonably identify a mushroom - Michael Kup, MushroomExpert.com. And so I have decided simply to post some of the mushroom photos that I like.
