Candlesnuff fungus


Photo Information
One from a week or so back. There are still fungus out there to find.
Candlesnuff is one of the last tenants of a rotting piece of tree before it crumbles to nothing.
Pentax-A 100mm macro - which still isn't listed in the list of lenses!

Interesting... looked like it could almost be a drone shot from the thumbnail... like a high rise urban-scape... only in tree form...

Lovely way of presenting a very interesting fungus. I love the DoF that you have chosen, I think that it really makes the image pop.

Looks very similar to a fungus I found growing on rotting wood in our garden, see here:

That looks like candlesnuff to me - especially the powdery white spores all over it. Stagshorn is normally yellow and in compact bunches?
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
