Common Morel DSC_1001

Common Morel / morchella esculenta. 04/04/17.

 

Two Common Morels, one fresh and one past its best.

The dry, aged specimen in the foreground with its chocolate brown tones had a magnificent conical cap. There were no signs of any invertebrate damage on it, unlike the other one.

 

I liked the contrasts between the two, also that they were growing amongst a patchwork of Ground Ivy, so I attempted a few creative shots using selective focus.

BEST VIEWED LARGE.
