Let's look at mushrooms as works of art, living creatures hiding from the world, and not just flaunting their presence.

Here is a case of mushrooms which, when properly photographed, grow in the trunk of an old tree and look as if they were trapped in a ravine.

Here, the beautiful Calocera viscosa shows off its charms on a tree trunk, growing out of the green moss. This color scheme makes it very contrasting and easy to find in the forest.

Yellows watched by reds (a bit like in our lives). Here, in turn, red toadstools are watching a beaurea hornet, which stands out in the forest with its posture, colors, and charm. I think the toadstools are a bit jealous of it.

And here, in turn, the Orange Fox Mushroom pretends to be someone it is not, and it is also poisonous. And it is precisely pretending to be a very tasty chanterelle mushroom, commonly known as a chanterelle.

And here, in turn, the false chanterelle pretends to be someone it is not, and it is also poisonous. And it is precisely pretending to be a very tasty chanterelle mushroom, commonly known as a "kurka".

A group of black fungi grows in many levels and in groups. They look wonderful when they take over a tree in their entire group.

And here, in turn, a group of buttermilk, also poisonous, looks so appetizing that you'd like to transport it to the kitchen and eat it. I advise against it :D

And the king of the forest, the majestic Boletus edulis, watches over the whole thing. It can be beautiful, secretive and mysterious, and it is certainly very tasty.
