I have captured some mushrooms from my recent week trip to the Ladoga lake. The weather was exceptionally sunny, hot and dry (which isnt the best option for I the shrooms) but nevertheless, I spotted some nice ones. And we got enough for soupie (which I already posted). So, here are the rest of them.
All of the images are clickable. Also available for purchase in hi-res quality (if intrested, contact me at Discord: qwerrie#3288)
A noble, edible King Boleto -- it was the only copy of this specie I found this time. This one have grown in a tight location between stones, mosses and lichens. It looks like a drunken Mexico peasant, doing siesta under his big sombrero. Dont you have such associations?..
...and a lot of Chantrelles! I really have no idea, how they grow on the stones... all Ladoga islands are a pure stones... maybe they consume that slightest skin-deep layer of the soil, created by the mosses and the fallen leaves?... After all, mushrooms are saprophytes, it is their job to convert all this stuff.
These ones were hiding very, very well. One of them had the imprudence to show me himself .. and betrayed the whole family. I raked the fallen leaves, and found all these little shrooms under them. They hid well, but I was looking even better :)
ps. I cannot but share as a bonus this unknown one... it isnt a good shroom to be excited when you find it.... but look at the bokeh!
UPD. mycologist expert @sketch.and.jam found out: the bottom ones might be this https://www.first-nature.com/fungi/hygrocybe-ceracea.php
all the images taken with Canon 5d, 16-35mm 2.8L, except the King Bolete ones, I used Sigma 50mm 1.4 on it.
