This looks like a blueberry donut.

These look like spaceships.

The underside of the spaceships. They are white actually. It had that colored when I added filters.

The half-eaten mushroom. Someone found this irresistible but still thoughtful to leave enough for me to picture.

One of the mushrooms I had a hard time taking photos of.

I would have cleared the pine needles away to get a full picture of this but I like to leave it like this.

The pine needles give it a more natural look.

There are more of this where I took a photo of but this is the only one that came out clear.

These were taken at Maryknoll Ecological Sanctuary during our recent visit there. I really thought there would be more mushrooms there that we can find but glad that we still found some. Mushrooms are now one of the things that I keep an eye for whenever we go for a walk. When I am on the roadside crouching low and taking pictures of these, I would get the stares but I don't care as long as I have photos for #FungiFriday lol! I am used to getting that anyway whenever I take photos of anything that is of interest to me.

#FungiFriday is hosted by @ewkaw. Got mushrooms around you? Do you grow your own mushroom? Post about them in #FungiFriday :D

Most of these photos that I took were tiny that it is hard to take a photo of them because one, my phone's camera does not work that fine anymore and there is problem with its focus so I had to make the best I can with it.

Next, they are down in the ground that getting the perfect angle is truly a challenge. I didn't mind getting down and dirty just to get the shot that I needed but it is just impossible.

The first one I almost missed because it was tiny. I thought at first it was a fruit of something but when I took a closer look, it was a mushroom. I almost dismissed it at one point because I thought it was poo.

All these were taken in an area where sunlight can penetrate, sort of like a small clearing.

The most mushrooms that I saw were the ganoderma (sixth and seventh photos). Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm still learning to differentiate and the names of these mushrooms.

I like the second photo the most because of the texture of the wood it grew on.

There was one mushroom just like the half-eaten mushroom above but with pink spots I think that was wedged between two rocks. I couldn't get a clear photo of it so I didn't bother.

You know... once you start shooting shrooms you will look for them everywhere.
The stares don't bother me :) They are welcome to join me :D

I get a few stares too but I figure people haven't seen a buffalo with a camera before 😀

Mmmm furry blueberry donuts, I don't know if I'd eat that one personally 😀 The colors are really popping out in your photos, nicely done.

I honestly don't know if what is edible or not :D

Thank you for appreciating. I hope I did not overdo it. I use my phone to edit and it does look good but when I upload it, I feel it lacks the vibrancy that I was hoping for so sometimes I edit it more in my phone.

No, it's not overdone I like the overall look. As for edible mushrooms, I eat them all the time... from the supermarket. In the wild, nope not gonna do it

Now I can say you are a certified photographer when you don't care about people staring just to get those beautiful shots. 😆 I haven't reached that level yet. 😅😅😅 And I don't think I ever will hahaha. Anyways. Great shots. My favorites are the mushroom with pine needles on it and the half-eaten.
