A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
amanita muscaria
every picture is 1 day further. --1th picture: what i saw in the moment of the spotting --2th: is from (03.10.2011) monday, the day i found him, just 1-2 day to late to see the egg-state-begin --3th: is from tuesday, he let loose of his "annolus" (ring/band) --4th: the cap is still bent "convex" but the cap is completly seperated from the "annolus" --5th: the cap started to get "flat" almost bent upwards . (the picture is different from quality/color, because i forgot the camera at home, and had to take the picture with the old mobile camera). --6th: today the last day,i found him almost not altered as yesterday,he got prey of the cleaning-team, who had to clear the area. Suspect, he would not stand much longer naturally. The construction-work begins in this zone. and there are many people out there, who has no eye, for wildlife (but what will you do, the project must get ready). He was divided so you get at least a good look, on the shape of the gills in the profile.
In a little village at my building site, the mushroom stood on a construction-zone which was started today.,behind the hedge , between a construction waste container and some pvc-tubes. I go sometimes in my luch-break looking for some new spottingen, there i found him.
first just took some shots, because he was so well formed, beautiful specimen. But, when i took some new picture, 1 day later, i thought to make a little photoserie.The idea was to let people see, how fast it can go with mushrooms (and the amanitas are average--> some going really fast and some stay a while), from when they come out of the ground/strunk till they decay.
