PD. Posted July 10, 2010 Brilliant! Alot of work has gone into this, well done. Perfect shots for a lil book, I have wanted to do a book of subs and habitat for years now but not having a camera good enough atm makes things hard. They make excellent photo books, hard cover etc, at most big electrical stores, officeworks and the like and they really cost fuk all to get them made up with your choice of pictures and limited text which would be plenty for names proper. Good time to get habitat shots this time of year, even tho the fruiting has almost slowed to a stop in some spots the mist and fog seems to hang in the canopy makin for wicked photos.

Sonny Jim Posted July 11, 2010 I like the idea of a coffee table book. I wonder if a moderator could use the galerina spp photos you have posted in this thread and others for a "sticky" thread about potentially poisonous mushrooms. All sub enthusiast should know galerinas inside out. I am sure even the most experienced sub enthusiasts would learn something from seeing your photos Lord Mayonnaise.

Plantsoma Posted July 11, 2010 (edited) Absolutely beautiful photography! Some of the best fungi photography i've seen. My favourite is the first Flammulina velutipes photo.

paradox Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) so LM whens you're book coming out? edit.. actually considering the title of this thread, that would be a great idea! i think most people would be pretty surprised just how diverse fungal life is in urban areas if only you choose to look.. an fungus ID book focused towards the urban amateur mycologist, perhaps with different sections documenting the fungal diversity of different cities or something..?. with such lovely pics it would be way cool!!!

Zen Peddler Posted September 26, 2010 thread of the year in my opinion! Can i guess the rough location? (north east of Rosanna/Bundoora or east of upwey??) and the camera a Canon Eos 450? Taking photos of mushrooms is a pain even with the best camera. Yours are all very impressive! You should come out to my block next year on the mountain.

ref1ect1ons Posted September 27, 2010 Lycoperdon sp., Coprinopsis lagopus and inocybe were stand-outs for me this time. Another wonderful photojourney LM, many thanks.
