Here are a few of many taken recently. The Amanita Muscaria (last picture) is the only one I have any confidence in identifying. I won't be eating any of them!
Really nice series, Dan.
I especially like the first one for the detail on the cap.
And because of the insects on it. I could count at least five flies ;)

Thanks Maximilian.
I see there are a few bugs on the stems in the second picture, but I don’t know what they are. Some mushrooms seem to attract insects while others don’t.

I know next to nothing about mushrooms or fungi. My wife came across these today, and I gather they are Shaggy Inkcaps or Shaggy Manes in various states. I had the 1000mm on the R5 so I could get a low angle by standing back. I focus stacked them but at the distance I was away it made very little difference.

Excellent shots Alan! - when you say 'the 1000mm', do you mean your 100-500 with 2xTC??
