Found in the Blue Mountains region on a pile of wood chips. They don't seem fresh, but I'm not experienced enough to know how long they have been there for. Most were quite dry (some with moist gills), and the stems were tougher than I had imagined they would be - bit more like a soft (but firm) twig rather than a 'mushroom from the store' stem.
These are taken at the location as found, and are very true to the real colour of the mushrooms, whereas the images further down are not a great representation of colour
On the 3rd and 4th images you can see the spores have dropped on the stem. No real purple colour, more of a chocolate brown. Am attempting a spore print, but not sure if there will be much left to drop... we'll see. I'm sure the spore colour in the images above will be clear enough for someone experienced to judge.
Now onto the other images. I know there are alot, but I want to give the best chance of an accurate ID.
These are the same mushrooms, but in warm afternoon sunlight with flash.
