Mushrooms And Fungi Of Any Kind
- Thread starter Maximilian
- Start date
The guys that are shooting to DOCUMENT something rare or even still not reported fungi (or what ever else!) are also a photographers and as I know from my own experience they most of the time are fighting very bad light/overall conditions (especially shooting fungi...). And they MUST shoot in order to document! And since they too are buying cameras and are interested of the best gear that can make their life easy my humble opinion is that they have a place HERE (right HERE!!!)! The artistic aspect of the Photography is not the ONLY content of the photography!!! That you are interested of only that aspect of photography shouldn't be a reason to say "I'm the only one worth of it here"?!!

I wonder what the hell is the fungus that is in focus: the front three (out of focus) are most probably Inocybe. But the one behind, where you did put the focus, is kind of puzzle: Looks like overgrown and partially destroyed Helvella crispa but it looks too big and too many lobes! Are they actually two of them awkwardly attached to each-other : I think I "resolved" two stems there (tell me the high resolution is not helpful when needed
!): one on the left side almost vertical and one on the right tilted left?

Sparassis brevipes is more similar to the thing on your photo but that stems do NOT belong to any Sparassis that I know (incl. some North American species).
I think it's Helvella crispa but not 100% confident.... Nice encounter anyway: I have seen it in real only few times.

Here are photos from today that might probably help you.
This should be the same group of mushrooms that I did on Saturday.
In between those 5 days, we had rain, frost and even some snow. It seems that those mushrooms "melt" away under these conditions.
Looking at the stipe, I am with you that those could be Helvella crispa. Do these photos help you to IS; @ISv ?

The "Solitary individual" is solving the puzzle 100%. I mean 100% Helvella crispa!

Winter is coming...

! On other hand it's a beautiful photo (I like how the light is coming to underline the object!!).BTW if the gills underside are rusty/brown you may try to make it Gymnopillus but it's very loooong shot

The R and 1,8/50 have become for me kind of an EDC whenever I leave home for a short walk. The R may not be the best camera around, but I like its total reliability, its colors, weight and size. The RF 50mm f/1,8 is a stunning little lens, providing a superb sharpness from f/4. Below f/4 it's a different story..."Pic taken with the horrible EOS R and the atrocious RF 1,8/50mm" - this should explain why I can't ID your mushroom

Of course, for more "serious" macros and photography, I'd rather rely on the R5 II or 5 D IV plus dedicated macro lenses, like RF 100, Zeiss Makro Planar 50, Leica R 60 and 100 Macro Apo Elmarit.
