I found this one already lying on the ground, so I could make a good image of the lamellae of the porcelain fungus. It's a beautiful structure.

♂ Onychogomphus costae (Sélys, 1885) de Agramón, Albacete.

En buena compañía, (Pipa, Ricardo, Gaona, Manolo y Josevi), conseguimos ver y fotografiar a la apreciada O. cazuma, O, forcipatus, etc y esta maravilla tan delicada que parece de porcelana.

"His first thought – what felt like his first thought ever, it formed so slowly in his brain – was that she looked like a doll. Just like a doll. Her eyes were large and bright and feline; her hair

was chestnut, brushed to a hardwood shine, parted sharply and flowing to her thighs; her lips were cupid’s-bow-cute; her head was tilted to one side on a long, long neck. She had skin that had never seen sunlight, and wore no expression at all.

 

He noticed her. And she noticed, and kept on noticing, him.

 

Stanley looked down for a third and longer time. It wasn’t polite to stare. Not at girls. Or anyone. But especially not girls. Not even girls who looked like perfect porcelain dolls.”

― Amelia Mangan, Release

 

Moby: this whole presentation is perfect. Porcelain is the second song.

"Porcelain"

 

In my dreams I'm dying all the time

As I wake its kaleidoscopic mind

I never meant to hurt you

I never meant to lie

So this is goodbye

This is goodbye

 

Tell the truth you never wanted me

Tell me

 

In my dreams I'm jealous all the time

As I wake I'm going out of my mind

Going out of my mind

A mushroom with two common names, it is also known as the Poached Egg fungus. Very common, edible after washing to remove gluten. I've tried these and they're not worth the effort.

This Bennington-style porcelain door knob was shot at a building in Brattleboro, Vermont.

 

The Bennington pottery first produced richly swirled clay knobs in the mid 1800s. Paired with small rosettes or back plates, they make a stately, yet understated period style door set. The durable glazed knobs were firmly fastened to a solid iron shank in antique iron finish.

Far be it for me to question the experts but these were massive! The biggest here was certainly 10cm but elsewhere I would say easily 12cm. Regrettably, I would need a ladder to confirm it. They certainly grow bigger than 8cm Mr Jordan!

When I wander my own ways as I do now,...I never feel more alive than when I have the camera in my hand and I kiss the sky at sunset !

 

It is then that I lie beneath imaginary worlds and I listen to the light that burns the clouds and turns the sky into porcelain !

BTW. I'm away for a few days so I'll catch up with you ASAP! Many thanks for all your lovely comments and faves...always very much appreciated :)

These three porcelain kitties sit on my mantle in the living room.

Gemaakt in de bossen rond Paleis 't Loo in Apeldoorn. Het verval is begonnen maar de schoonheid van deze porceleinzwam is nog steeds zichtbaar. In de glans van de hoed zie je de weerspiegeling van de lucht, de bomen die verderop staan en het mooie mos waar de hoed op rust. De linker rand lijkt van glas gemaakt. Druk op de 'L' toets voor de vergroting.

 

Made in the woods around Paleis 't Loo in Apeldoorn. The decay has started but the beauty of this porcelain mushroom is still visible. In the shine of the hat you can see the reflection of the sky, the trees ahead and the beautiful moss on which the hat rests. The left edge seems to be made of glass. Hit the 'L' button for the magnification.

Porcelain fungus

Oudemansiella mucida, commonly known as porcelain fungus, is a basidiomycete fungus of the Physalacriaceae family and native to Europe.

 

O. mucida is a white, slimy wood-rot fungus and is strongly tied to rotting beech, where it grows in clusters. It is in season late summer to late autumn, and tiny fungi can then sometimes be seen parachuting from high branches, when they are dislodged by the wind on breezy days.

 

Distribution and habitat

Porcelain fungus is native to Europe, and specific to beech wood, where it appears in autumn on dead tree like trunks and fallen branches, occasionally on dead branches high up in living trees. It is saprobic or weakly parasitic to living beech trees. While it has a strong tie to beech, it has been found growing on oak on rare occasions.

 

Oudemansiella mucida occurs throughout northern and central Europe, where Beech is found and in its habitat this fungus is a common specie. When O. mucida is found on a beech tree, it usually outcompetes other fungi locally by means of a powerful anti-fungal agent called strobilurin.

Mucidule visqueuse

La Mucidule visqueuse (Oudemansiella mucida) est un champignon basidiomycète que l’on rencontre souvent en automne, en touffes ou en petits troupeaux sur les troncs de hêtres vivants ou morts. Comme leur nom l'indique, ces champignons sont recouverts d'une couche de mucus.

 

Description

Le chapeau (3-10 cm) est blanc, éventuellement gris pâle à petites rides, d’abord hémisphérique lorsqu’il est jeune, il s’étale en vieillissant, la marge est translucide. Les lames sont horizontales, de couleur blanche avec une arête brunâtre. Le stipe est blanc et gluant (3-7 cm) portant un anneau blanc à petites cannelures souvent gris blanc dans sa partie inférieure. La chair est très mince, élastique sans odeur ni saveur particulière.

 

Habitat

Elle pousse, de la fin de l’été à l’automne, sur le bois des feuillus (particulièrement sur les hêtres) vivants ou morts, affaiblis par une cassure ou une blessure (orage ou tempête par exemple) ou sur ceux qui sont récemment tombés.
