Hi Francine,

This is so interesting to see - I hope someone can ID it. Very sharp picture with excellent details of the folds and shapes. Nice natural colors and very pretty to look at.

Dear Francine,
I adore your walkway and the natural surrounding you are in when I see myself in the thick of NY type concrete jungle of Bombay (Mumbai) in India. These look like edible one...but you can not take chance unless very very sure. Lets see some Mushroom Specialist finally decides to confirm it's ID.

Hello Francine,
Wow, Incredicle image Francine, your depth of field, focus and exposure combine to create a fabulous image. As for ID I would guess it is some form of bracket fungi.

Beautiful Francine,
I like most the exposure level here, perfect..Control the light and you control the shot as they say ;}
You've shown the mushrooms form, shape, and texture amazingly well.

Bellissima macro, ottimi POV e composizione, nitidezza molto buona, ottima esposizione con un'ottima resa dei colori nonostante il contrasto. Il fungo è poliporo, o un poliporo lamellato (Lenziles betulina) o più probabilmente uno della specie Pleurotus, ma bisorebbe vedere anche la parte superiore. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

Bonjour Francine,
Fantastic shot, great macro. Wonderful details, sharpness, compo. Bravo.
I don't fully agree with Maurizio (maurydv) in ID specification, it's impossible being Lenzites betulina. This is Pleurotus pulmonarius ("Summer Oyster" in English), without any doubt.
Tfs, best regards, László

Buen ángulo y excelente iluminación Francine. El formato muy adecuado y muy instructivo el poder verse el entorno, tanto del tronco como del bosque.
