Darmstadt - Oberfeld

Even on rainy days there are still interesting objects to photograph.

Can anyone identify this bracket fungus? It's on a dead spruce stump.

Bitter Bracket - Postia stiptica Lower (fertile) surface with tubes and pores; watery droplets are exuded mainly from margin region and from the pores. Very bitter taste. It may turn ochre-brown when old. Usually on felled trunks and large fallen branches of conifers; very occasionally on the timber of hardwood trees.

Was glad to finally be able to photograph these signals in clouds, as under normal operating times, this shot would be completely backlit,

Have a safe and happy weekend everyone

Sous l'œil attentif,

Fleurs révèlent leurs secrets,

Beauté infinie.

Under attentive gaze,

Flowers unveil their secrets,

Infinite beauty.

View from underneath showing the pores. Not sure of the ID of this species? See photo (1) also. Spotted at the JFK Arboretum.

Part of a bracket fungus (I think) growing out, in the vicinity of a large tree that we had to have taken down a few years ago. Apparently there's still tree material down there in the soil. This was about as large as a plate. I like the colors.

This is probably Ganoderma.

Thanks for looking! Isn't God a great artist?

After a 2 year Absense, Bewdley South bracket has returned over the Spring. With 2999 back and this not possible last year. This had to be done

NS 127 is southbound on Nº2 Track by Spring at Atlanta, Georgia with CBFX SD60M 6023 followed by a NS C44-9W and LTEX SD60M in October 2018.

A St Joe local works west past the bracket at Riverside about four miles west of Cincy.

The birch polypore only grows on Birch trees. This leathery bracket fungus has a rounded, coffee-coloured cap. This particular specimen was approximately 30cm across

I am still learning to use my new raya pro software and digged out this image from HK i made 2015. There is a very bright portion of the sky on top of the image but it was not possible to use a filter to darken that part because there is no filter with such a form.

Therefore i originally made three bracketed images (-2EV, 0, +2EV) and merged them with Photomatix for my first edit.

Now i used the Raya Pro software for my second edit and got a much more natural looking result where the colours and saturation are much closer to the original.

I am leaving this weekend to drive to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for a week of shooting/ It is always a crap shoot in terms of color. I am usually early or late. No matter what, I actually think it is superior to New England where I grew up. I always have to remind myself to bracket the images and use a polarizer since the colors are so vivid.

I think this might be "Chicken of the Woods" one of several edible species of Laetiporus fungus. Visible from a public footpath in Nottinghamshire. The fungus and tree it is infecting stand on private land, so even if I was confident about my identification and its conservations status (which I'm not!) I would still leave it well alone!

This is a bracket fungus growing on a large Ash tree and it's the 2nd year that I've noticed it.

In it's early stages it's an acidic yellow gelatinous ball shape oozing liquid.

I've tried to identify it and it would appear to be a Shaggy Bracket, or Ionotus hispidus (source: www.first-nature.com/fungi/inonotus-hispidus.php)

It's described as a bracket fungus that is found mostly on Ash and Apple and leads to white rot decay in the tree.

Some exceptional medicinal benefits though are attributed to this mushroom as a remedy to cancer, diabetes and stomach ailments and the lowering of blood glucose levels.

If anyone can confirm this identification I'd be very grateful.

I keep the horses' riding tack—bridle, bit, and reins—hung on brackets on the wall of the little hay barn, one set for Spirit and one for Andy. To keep the long reins from drooping down to the floor, where they would be imperiled by passing goat hooves and cat paws, I loop the lower end of the reins up over the mounting bracket, creating the droplet shapes shown here, caught in the morning light spilling through the barn door.
