Description
This handsome mushroom colony found good food and a nice home on this decaying log in the woods. The picture was taken August 13, 2013, in Green Lane, Pennsylvania, USA, using a Canon T4i and a Tamron macro lens (90 mm).
There are some exceedingly generouspeople on FAA who share their time and knowledge, and Timothy Myles is one. He feels this mushroom may be Cortinarius collinitus. If you'd like to do more reading, visit this Wiki page.

Mother Nature, I have so enjoyed exploring your portfolio...the collection of “mushrooms” is truly beautiful. This is among my favorites...LF My paternal grandmother was a chef and she would pick her own mushrooms for Christmas Eve. Although her heritage and cooking style was French, she would prepare a customary holiday feast for my grandfather who was Polish...kapusta was a savory soup of sauerkraut, cabbage yellow peas, spareribs , Reconstituted dried woodland mushrooms, onions and her Mixed herb pinches she would never divulge so her recipe was always the best. I have a sensitive palette and would most often come pretty close...and, I share my recipes!..:-)

My husband is Polish:>). Such great food - bet your Grandmom, since she had the French touch, made every morsel a delight:>) Thank you ever so much, Laurel:>). I'm playing "catch up" again so forgive the cut and paste. You honor me by browsing through so much of my portfolio!

Like this on the ground look at nature. Always busy images to record with the camera and this scene is delightful! Love the notion of .."a colony".
