    I'm not a fan...

    I'm not a big fan of mushrooms in general, but I do think it's fun to look for morels. I love their shape.

    That is a nice shot. The ant adds to it nicely.

    Re: I'm not a fan...

    Thanks for the kind words. I didn't even see the ant until I downloaded the images and saw them on the computer.

    After spending a few minutes with this morel, I moved to get a different angle, only to realize that there was another, smaller mushroom hiding right behind this one. I was hoping to get a chance to play with these a bit more this weekend, but they ended up in my wife's omelet this morning...

    Terrific find and makes a nice subject too.

    I was going to ask if you picked it to sell but I see that your wife was the fortunate recipient

    Perhaps you should start farming these.

    Re: I'm not a fan...

    If I could find enough of them, I would sell them. But since I don't like them, I'm not all that inclined to spend a lot of time looking. I did go out a little bit this afternoon but I didn't find any. My main purpose for looking was for photographic subjects. I'm glad I didn't find any because I forgot to put the battery in my camera before I went out.

    they are best found around elm tree forests. Last I checked $200 a pound dried and I have collected hundreds in a day on some job sites.

    not a fan of mushrooms either, so I just give them away.
