friday's fringe - 18 (fungusamongus!)





every friday. just one of my nature shots.
with an occasional 'morph' tossed in now & then.



the fungus-among-us collage
ALL these MUSHROOMS and LICHEN were spotted around our home in july & august.

of entire nations terrified to acknowledge the simplicity of the beauty of peace."

  1. Nifty!

    I found a puffball mushroom near the golf course yesterday, and brought it home. They're easy to prepare.

  4. Wow! What a nice collection of fungus things. Love the collage layout.

    Also the quote--so true. Too bad most of the world is so caught up with getting even and picking fights that they miss all the beauty and peace at their feet.

  11. Laura! I actually made it here on Friday! I love your collage...it's the best. The most colorful, and, some of your greatest work! It really gets me how you can find such varieties just within and around your property. You put it together perfectly! Listen to me, the photo critic! Well, I'll finish...you used great shades for the framing to compliment the photos. There! Your blog is still amazing! Have a great weekend-see you soon!♥

  15. how jealous i am of all those lovely feathers

    can you safely eat any of the mushrooms?

    we had a breakfast burrito with mushroom this morning, it would have looked much more colorful if it had some of these in it
