#mushroommonday A red mushroom with white spots, like the one you drew as a child. Or the one from Gnome Spillebeen (Dutch children's song). #mushroom #Pilz #Pilze #mushrooms #fungi #fungus #mushtodon #autumn #fall #Herbst #FungusFriday #nature #Natur #Herbst #autumn #autumnVibes #fallVibes #macro #macrophotography #fotografie #photography

On the right is a mushroom with a round cap, red with white spots. The mushroom grows in grass strewn with brown autumn leaves. On the left of the mushroom's cap is a fly. In the foreground, the grass and leaves are sharp. In the background, they are blurred.

🧡🧡 The orange peel fungus is almost impossible to miss with hits beautiful shapes and bright orange color - De grote oranje bekerzwam kun je bijna niet missen met haar fraaie vormen en heldere oranje kleur 🧡🧡.

#insectsaturday Two insects sought refuge on this tiny mushroom, that I happened to have in front of my lens. The mushroom didn't bend even a little under the weight of the "large" insect that landed on its cap. That's how light a fly is. I looked it up, and it might be a female fruit fly, but I'm not sure. I like the head with that big eye. I have no idea what the other insect is. It's so small that I didn't even notice it when I took a picture, a little bonus.

Slightly left of center is a tiny mushroom with a white and yellow cap, with beautiful folds in the cap and a very thin stem. The background is vague and orangey, with some green moss at the bottom of the photo. A tiny insect crawls up the stem. On the right edge of the cap sits a small fly (or something similar), but it looks very large compared to the mushroom's small cap. The fly has beautiful, large round eyes. The mushroom and the insect are very sharp.

For International Mushroom Day: my hand-carved lino block reduction print of a clump of poisonous, Eastern jack-o-lantern mushrooms (Omphalotus illudens) on a hardwood tree stump. The gills of these North American mushrooms are bioluminescent and glow green. My print has a layer of glow-in-the-dark ink so it too glows! The glow is believed to attract nocturnal insects which can then spread spores. 🧵1/2

As described this is my 8” x 10” linocut reduction print of a clump of several Eastern jack-o-lantern mushrooms in yellow-orange with glow-in-the-dark gills against a decaying tree stump with textured bark in grey, brown and black, and ground with dead leaves with green in a corner of the background. The print is signed and numbered by me, Ele Willoughby, 2024.
