Hola Geof, extraño fungus, parece gelatina... ver para saber... excelente muchas gracias TFS. Saludos

Hi Geof,
What an interesting fungi, almost looks like candy or yellow. The intens yellow color is very beautiful. Great idea to shoot it after some rain or dew, giving it the fungi this nice shine. I am not so sure about the frame, but that is me.
TFS,
Niek

Beautiful fungi and very well captured.

Exposure and DOF handled very well, I like the composition.

Bonjour,
Aspect gélatineux qui fait ressembler ces champignons à des friandises !
Bonne journée.

This is not a fungus...this is lava :)))
What a great capture, Geof!
Its color and texture are magnificent and the contrast with its environment is great.
Very nicely framed and composed, too.

Bravo and TFS
