Fly agaric
It's a very good fungi year, so I've been photographing fly agarics lately. This one is a sound specimen at a reindeer lichen covered open spot in a local broad-leaved forest. The scene reminded me a bit of a fairy tale.
Nikon D80 with Sigma 150 mm macro lens, iso 200, F 5, 1/125 sec. on a beanbag.
