Monomad - Lichenomphalia umbellifera fungus

This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge

Today I went hunting again at around 10.50 WIB in my parents' cocoa plantation area. My goal today was not to find insects to photograph, but rather to find some beautiful little mushrooms. That's why I chose this location, because usually this location never disappoints me in getting some interesting mushrooms.

And sure enough, I managed to photograph several interesting mushrooms, one of which seems to be part of the Lichenomphalia umbellifera mushroom that I am sharing here.

I found this beautiful mushroom growing on rotten tree bark, this medium-sized mushroom caught my attention, especially since apart from its attractive appearance, this mushroom is also equipped with beautiful gills, which strengthens its distinctive character.

In addition to the mushrooms above, I also found other beautiful mushrooms in a different location which was also not far from where I found the mushroom which I think is part of the Lichenomphalia umbellifera mushroom. Although at first glance these mushrooms are almost similar, I am not sure that these two mushrooms are the same species. But even so, these two mushrooms made me interested in photographing them today and I think it is worth sharing here. :)

The small mushroom you found is very beautiful, just as you said. I also consider this mushroom to be one of my favorite types.

Nice contrast you captured between the white of the motif and its dark background, it certainly gives weight to the composition.

Wow those gill mushrooms look really pretty where did you find them, because this past summer I have had a hard time finding any mushroom species.

Mushrooms are always interesting for visual objects, and interestingly again. All the photos are wrapped in black and white and full of impression :)
