Some more Forest Mushrooms for Treasure Tuesday

 





Right thigh is feeling much better. I think it is muscle tear healing up. Now contemplating on swimming instead. Less toll on muscular injury.

Fungus Mount Macedon for Treasure Tuesday

 


This was taken at the beginning of the month which was rather late for mushroom hunting. 


Overnight was zero-degree celcius. No fun. The lack of sunlight and the cold feeling in isolation does make me a little melancholic. 

On YouTube, I saw this phenomenon called "Blue Dot Effect" published in psychiatric journal, which was rather interesting. Basically, we all choose to have our own problems when there is nothing really major. Food for thought.

Mount Macedon Fungi for Treasure Tuesday

 


A bit late to the mushroom hunt with Joel this year. Though we did not find parasol, these brown ones will do.

Fungi clusters in Mount Macedon

 


Looks kind of juicy there. Cold chilly wind in Mount Macedon. Melbourne has been quite wet lately.

Parasol for Sunday Best

 


Jackpot getting a cluster of parasol fungi from the weekend before. 

Just came back home from a wedding reception. I suddenly realised I was older and lonely. Sigh...

Mycelium Interruptus Macro



We hit out to Mount Macedon on the weekend. Mushroom hunting 3rd time this year. We noticed many mushrooms were destroyed by others after photographing them. 

The relentless foraging finally got to this one on a dead log so far away from the normal walking paths in Sanitarium Lake. We got the shot this year.

Cortinarius rotundisporus in Yarra Junction, Melbourne

 


It is very hard ignoring it when I see one. Love the petite look of it.

Foraging in the bush, Emerald

 


The sheer joy of getting a macro shot in focus. I am using an old sigma macro lens from 30 years ago. There is no digital coating on the lens. So flare sensitivity is clear. I don't like flashes in macro so this was taken at high ISO. A lot of noise. Well, whatever. It was a nice walk in the wet forest.

Mycelium in the woods, Mount Macedon, Victoria

 


They do look yummy in the moisture. 

I shot this in the rain actually. I used an old sigma macro lens that was not weather resistant at all.

Lake Sanitarium, Mount Macedon, Victoria, Australia

 


A stroll in the woods. Refreshing to see a mushroom. Shallow depth of field is nice too.
