Pink Jelly beans
Well i dont know any better way of describing them... Anyone know? I've seen them before but i dont know the type.

Didnt have much luck, went out to see if any early fly was coming out and found very few fungus in my local woodland.

an interesting shot, works quite well. I can't help with the ID I'm afraid.

Interesting indeed. But I can't ID it also.

Think I know what they are but I can't remember right now. I'll try and remember to have a look at home later.

Interesting, like the use of DoF, possibly a Lycogala species could be Terrestre certainly not sure.

Hi Paul,

Can't help with the ID but I think it's a superb shot.

The colour is excellent, as is the way the darker moss and wet wood is framing the subject.
Love the narrow depth of field and the way the way the subject curves from corner to corner through the frame.

I only know DUTCH mushrooms.... :wink: I agree with Justin, great colours and love the framing of the subject.
