A stunted Amethyst Deceiver found among the leaf litter in woodland in Sussex.

 

Laccaria amethystina, commonly known as the amethyst deceiver, is a small brightly colored mushroom, that grows in deciduous as well as coniferous forests. The mushroom itself is eible, but can absorb arsenic from the soil. Because its bright amethyst coloration fades with age and weathering, it becomes difficult to identify, hence the common name ‘Deceiver’. This common name is shared with its close relation Laccaria laccata that also fades and weathers. It is found mainly in Northern temperate zones, though it is reported to occur in tropical Central and South America as well. Recently, some of the other species in the genus have been given the common name of "deceiver".

 

The cap is 1–6 cm in diameter, and is initially convex, later flattening, and often with a central depression (navel). When moist it is a deep purplish lilac, which fades upon drying out. It is sometimes slightly scurfy at the center, and has pale striations at the margin.The stem is the same colour as the cap, and has whitish fibrils at the base, which become mealy at the top. It is fibrous, hollow, fairly tough when rolled in the fingers, with dimensions of 0.6 to 7 centimetres (0.24 to 2.76 in) long by 0.1 to 0.7 centimetres (0.039 to 0.276 in) thick. The flesh is without a distinctive taste or smell, and is thin, with pale lilac coloration. The gills are colored as the cap, often quite distantly spaced, and are dusted by the white spores; their attachment to the stem is sinuate - having a concave indentation before attaching to the stem.

The cap is convex, usually greyish brown but can be light brown to olive. It grows up to 15 cm in diameter. The stem is pale grey, rather long and slender with longitudinal furrows. The flesh is white, slowly turning grey-violet when cut, particularly in the stem, and it has a mild taste.

Posting a few photos from my Buffalo (Western New York state) trip back in 2017. Buffalo is about two hours from Toronto by car and a place where -- when the Canadian dollar is high relative to the U.S. dollar -- many Torontonians go to shop for things that are available in the U.S. but not in Canada. Despite that most Torontonians unfairly have very little respect for Buffalo. Well, you all know that I think very differently from most people. I think Buffalo has many hidden interesting things to see and do.

After trekking precariously over the 'killer convex' section of Snowdon's Llanberis path, we were whited-out and forced to stop until the cloud passed. 10 minutes later and the skies began to clear, revealing spectacular views towards the western peaks and the Irish Sea beyond.

Amanita muscaria (L. ex Fr.) Hooker Fly Agaric, Amanite tue-mouches, Fausse Oronge Roter Fliegenpilz Cap 8–20cm across, globose or hemispherical at first then flattening, bright scarlet covered with distinctive white pyramidal warts which may be washed off by rain leaving the cap almost smooth and the colour fades. Stem 80–180×10–20mm, white, often covered in shaggy volval remnants as is the bulbous base, the white membranous ring attached to the stem apex sometimes becoming flushed yellow from the pigment washed off the cap. Flesh white, tinged red or yellow below the cap cuticle, Taste pleasant, smell faint. Gills free, white. Spore print white. Spores broadly ovate, nonamyloid, 9.5–10.5×7–8”. Habitat usually with birch trees, Season late summer to late autumn. Common. Deadly poisonous. It contains many different toxins see below. Distribution, America and Europe.

 

This is one of the easiest species to recognize and describe, and consequently its properties have been well documented for centuries. The common name Fly Agaric comes from the practice of breaking the cap into platefuls of milk, used since medieval times to stupefy flies. It is a strong hallucinogen and intoxicant and was used as such by the Lapps. In such cases the cap is dried and swallowed without chewing. The symptoms begin twenty minutes to two hours after ingestion. The central nervous system is affected and the muscles of the intoxicated person start to pull and twitch convulsively, followed by dizzines and a death-like sleep. During this stage the mushrooms are often vomited but nevertheless the drunkenness and stupor continue. While in this state of stupor, the person experiences vivid visions and on waking is usually filled with elation and is physically very active. This is due to the nerves being highly stimulated, the slightest effort of will producing exaggerated physical effects, e.g. the intoxicated person will make a gigantic leap to clear the smallest obstacle. The Lapps may have picked up the habit of eating the Fly Agaric through observing the effects of the fungus on reindeer, which are similarly affected. Indeed, they like it so much that all one has to do to round up a wandering herd is to scatter pieces of Fly Agaric on the ground. Another observation the Lapps made from the reindeer was that the intoxicating compounds in the fungus can be recycled by consuming the urine of an intoxicated person. The effects of consuming this species are exceedingly unpredictable; some people remain unaffected while others have similar, or different, symptoms to those above, and at least one death is attributed to A. muscaria. This unpredictability is due to the fungus containing different amounts of the toxins ibotenic acid and muscimol according to season, method of cooking and ingestion, as well as the subject’s state of mind. Ibotenic acid is mostly concentrated in the coloured skin of the cap. This very unstable compound rapidly degrades on drying to form muscimol which is five to ten times more potent. Traditionally, where A. muscaria is used as an inebriant, it is the dried cap which is taken.

A convex mirror along a trail/road in Hontoon Island State Park in the Saint Johns River outside Deland, Florida. Hontoon Island is a low swampy island made up primarily of swamps and stands of pine, palms, and oak. The mirror must be there so you can see the almost nonexistent traffic coming along the road. The traffic is nonexistent because there are no road connections to the island. You can only get there by private boat or by the pedestrian ferry.

finally have "mounted" the Leitz Colorplan on a Helicoid...thinking easier (to get infinity) to get it on some bellows. Photo into a plastic "convex" mirror-like surface.. not even sure what it's made for. Found it in a thrift store. 😄

A silver-gilt convex shield with a central medallion cast in high relief showing Apollo in a quadriga, surrounded by stars and female figures representing the constellations. The broad border is cast in low relief with scenes of human life (a wedding and banquet, siege, ambush and engagement, harvest, judicial appeal, vintage, oxherds defending their beasts and a Cretan dance), within an outer border of stylised waves and a broad reeded rim.

Surrounded by killer grass.

Rectangular slab, with a convex profile, decorated with a trireme. The ship is depicted with an “acrostolium” with a volute curled inwards and, at the stern, with a “rostrum” with three swords. The hull is protected by longitudinal beams.

The ship moves to the right pushed by the triple row of oars; two reliefs depicting the icon of a deity and the head of Medusa are carved at the bow; at the stern rises the “stylis” with the flag. In addition to the helmsman (“gubernator”), seven naked rowers and a figure at the bow appear as members of the crew.

This and the slab inv. no. 6600 belong to a funerary monument with a circular drum. The two slabs, probably, recall the feats accomplished by the military fleet stationed at Miseno in the last decades of the 1st century BC.

Depending on the place you look first you will see convex or concave shapes. Please, have a try ;o)

 

En fonction de l'endroit que vous regarderez en premier, vous verrez des formes convexes ou concaves ... faites un essai ;o)
