Hi Adrian,
Beautiful close up.Well seen and composed.Colors,use of light and POV are also excellent.Have a nice day too.
Thanks for posting.

Hello Adrian,
Very nice shot with nice details and colours.
I suggest Calocera viscosa or Stag-horn Fungus... only by the colours and general aspect. Not sure: I'm a beginner in fungi...
Best regards,
Catherine

Czesc Adrian!

Hi Adrian,
You're probably right about these being Ramaria family or perhaps Clavaria.
They could possibly be Clavaria archer or Ramariopsis simplex.
Its often very hard to identify these as there are so many similar yellow and orange ones.
In this case, I think it might have been better to perhaps focus entirely on one of the larger clumps (like the one on the right) as it is so hard to get good DOF with groups of these.
Still, its always nice to see pretty groups of yellow/orange fungi.
Cheers
Steve

Hi Adrian
Nice capture of these tiny fungi. The colour is so vibrant. Your right they do look like small campfires. Well done.
