FungiFriday: The Luminous Porecap was captured just before dusk
It was soon going to be dusk when I saw these mushrooms under the bushes yesterday. I almost left them because the environment in which the mushrooms were found was too dimly lit.
Yes, it's a bit lousy to shoot mushrooms with an external macro lens in low-light conditions. There's actually a flash phone that can highlight the mushroom, but it's impossible to do if I shoot using a macro lens because it's obscured by the lens barrel.
I immediately realized that what I found were not ordinary mushrooms; they were luminous porecaps (Mycena manipularis ). Even in dim light, the mushroom fruit bodies are bioluminescent. So I don't waste them!
On the surface of the mushroom cap, there are strokes that are very aesthetic but still soft if you touch them.
This mushroom differs from most mushrooms in that it does not have gills under its cap but instead has rather large pores. The pores are luminous white and partially translucent brownish.
Those beautiful pores are neatly formed in such a way, and of course, they would be more beautiful if they were highlighted by light.
The luminous porecap commonly occurs on damp, rotting wood, and the fungus normally grows in large and small groups. I think almost all forests in tropical countries have these beautiful mushrooms. I hope you can find them in your country too!
very nice shot of mushrooms.
Waw, it's a very beautiful mushroom, your shot is perfect, the details are clearly visible
