Marcel Posted May 24, 2011 Nice night photo! I picked one a while ago and brought it home to show the kids. It was still glowing that night when I was tucking them in. Needless to say, their little minds were blown! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tripsis Posted May 25, 2011 Nice shots. I love this species. Should go out and look for some, as they're pretty common around here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marcel Posted May 26, 2011 Good stuff. Looking forward to the details. Set up a whole bunch in front of some super sensitive solar panels and power your whole house! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
∂an Posted May 26, 2011 Wow amazing glowing fungi! I put some photos of this mushroom I took in Tasmania in another thread. Really caught my eye, the colours and texture of the caps are beautiful. Was right outside my tent, pity it poured with rain that night so I didn't get to see them glowing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
