Spotting

Notes:

I am fascinated by these! Never thought a simple fungus could look so beautiful. The largest one is at least 5 inches across.

That's exactly what I felt when I first began observing the fruit of the fungi kingdom. They are some kind of amazing, yet they could be as simple and plain as the ones you have photographed here. And the shots are great! :)
