Artist's Description
Slime molds are amazing almost-creatures, almost-fungi. They are classified as "Ameobozoa-Mycetozoa-Myxogastria-Stemonitida-Stemonitidae-Stemonitis-S. fusca". They go through a number of phases, quite different from the mushrooms and bracket fungi. It begins as a big cell with numerous nuclei, and it moves around looking for food in leaf litter on the forest floor. When time is right it goes through three more stages, white, pink, brown, to create spores and disperse them.
I took this picture with a Canon T4i and a Tamron macro lens - 90mm. This was found in Green Lane, Pennsylvania, USA, on June 7, 2014.

You can find this image in my mushrooms and fungi gallery although they are really in a class of their own:>)
About Carol Senske
I always wanted to try photography, and my retirement offered an opportunity to do just that. The natural world is my first love. Here you will find pictures of things both large (landscapes, for instance) and small (macro) that catch my eye. I hope the images serve as a window into the natural world many of you don't have the chance to see. In a sense, I'm trying to create a guided nature trail, sharing what information I have about the subject. I'm always grateful for new and better information and welcome all input. Learning is food for the mind and soul. Nothing is ever harmed in the picture-taking process, but some things that wander into our home (like spiders) are carefully removed from the house after they serve as "models"....
