Serenity indeed. Love the creek shot. Looks like an area I'd be willing to get lost in for a few days by the way ever try dropping a line in there?

thanks its a beautiful spot has lots of wild mint very fragrant too bad the area gets trashed by thugs just the other day i hauled 20 bottles and cans out of there, but on the plus i love it cause i collect them and cash them in so win in my part in a weird way

regarding my talk the otherday on stipe and gill color and also pileus i have some photos of some.

you will notice that the stipe is a bare white and same with the gills, this is quite usually the case for fresh fungi, however like i said different conditions can change this when young (ie if they get damaged, windy day etc) this does not mean they wont blue when you take them home, if handled right there should be minimal bluing but remember you are looking for signs of Psilocybin oxidization (bluing)
intense oxidization will be almost black and that can be bad because you have handled it roughly and the remaining Psilocybin has oxidized and will disintegrate leaving the fungi virtually useless.
i will make more of these showcasing Subs at different drying points, bluing, gill color and so forward.


some nice pins


nice bell cap


and those mysterious Subs i mentioned before, only a photo of them in a patch but i will take some further shots of the caps etc... they are a very different Sub variant to any i have seen and only grow in this one part of the hills every year. now please note im not claiming to have found  new species but they are very different indeed, sometimes the thickness of the stipe is greater than the pileus and can go wavier than any other Sub ive seen.


i hope this can help some of you n00bs out, and if so a good rating never goes a stray
peace
