Hare'sfoot Inkcap mushroom (Coprinopsis lagopus) |
It's happening all over again!!
...the fungi season that is.
There's a lot to enjoy about autumn. Especially the fungi. Extruding up through autumn's cracks - the strange fruit of an underworld - a weird blossoming of textures, shapes smells.
And this is one my favourites - Hare'sfoot Inkcap mushroom growing on a favoured habitat - woodchip mulch by a car park this afternoon.
The delicate beauty of these fungi is stunning with their cap margins inrolling to form black-ribbed translucent bowls.

I find these beautiful fungi incredibly photogenic.
The caps picked out with fine lines - as if drawn in black ink - are paper thin and translucent and only last a matter of hours.
I experimented with backlighting some.
