Not a clue what species it is, and a somewhat imperfect specimen, but I thought it had character. I focused for the tiny rain drop near the base of the fungus. Taken at Speke Hall, Liverpool, last
Friday.

Certainly has character - stick a couple of eyes and a forked tounge on it and you'd have a snake about to strike - or something out of Little Shop of Horrors .
Took me a bit to work out where your drop of water was though.

An interresting subject - sometimes the imperfections can add to the apeal. I think i'd prefer it further to the left of the frame.

No idea what it is, but I like it! Sometimes with fungi, imperfect specimens are more interesting, as Graham says. I like the inclusion of the trees in the background, which give a sense of the location it was found.
