UPDATED. New pics of Formitopsis pinicola

found in NE Oh. grass next to a dead tree stump the other on dead tree. 1. I believe either Amanita vaginata, or Xerula sp.





 2. Some kind of wood loving polypore. This was as close as I could get to it.

Your first one kinda looks like Xerula Radicata, does it have a white print?

If it's Radicata then it's edible, but it's up to you if you want to eat them. I've eaten one before there not particularly special.

Your polypore is most likely Ganoderma applanatum.

That polypore is awesome! It looks like the tree fell over and it's growth pattern changed with it. I don't think it's G. applanatum though.

Yeah I think so too. I saw it riding down the road and made a mental note to go check it out. Ive passed it a bunch of times! It looks almost like a tree burl coming out of the tree that the mushroom grew off of. Then I thought no wait thats the older mushroom that died off and the new ones are starting out of it. I really like this photo but wish I had got a better one. maybe tomorrow I will put on some jeans and wade through the jaggers for a better shot

Fomitopsis pinicola. Fer sure.
Sketch, that's an amazing config - dammit, man, borrow a good cam and tripod and get a great shot of that. It's worthy. I'd hang it on my wall, the pic and the fungus. ;-) But it's so pretty where it is.
Why couldn't you get to it? Swamp, too high, guarded by jabbberwockies, what???

Super patch of jaggers guarding it lol. Ty i am planning on getting a better photo of it tomorrow. Might be good like you said framed! I took the lifeproof case off my ipad and think it will take clearer pics, especially with a tripod.

Old name is Phallinus Ramosus I think the name has been changed Though to Foems something, It looks vey much like it is growing on black locuse so Im pretty sure that is what it is. Very common on that tree casuing a interior haertwood rot.

Ah...
Species: Phellinus rimosus Variety: Fomes rimosus casuarinae Variety: Fomes rimosus rimosus Variety: Fomes tepperi casuarinae Variety: Fomes tepperi tepperi
The babies are dead ringers for F. pinocola, but giving the older one another look as best I can, it does appear to have a lot more texture on the topside that the pinicola... And we don't have black locust around here, lots of pine.
Love it! Learn something new every day. I seems difficult to get hard ids on a lot of the polypores here, not so many folks find them sexy.

But apparently we're both wrong. So it goes. 
Sketch - best pic of that yet... I was going to chide you about focus last nite but decided you probably didn't need the grief. Then I got distracted with the Phellinus stuff...
What did you do differently this time? And a photo tip - get right the f up on your subject, if at all possible. Wide pics for habitat are fine, but a good pic will be full of your subject. Light behind you if you can manage, if not do something so it's not in the lens... And... Focus, for the love of mycology.

Ok TY and I appreciate your being sensitive for me yesterday lol. Wasnt the best of days. I will use the advice. With you helping me my photography has already improved some. Thanx again to you and the rest of Shroomery. I just cleaned my lens and tried to point to the sky more often and take tons of pics from different angles as you suggested i waded through chest high jaggers to get that shot lol. I took maybe a hundred. Only the one above came out perfect without editing it. i think.

Remember that with digital film is free. Every one of the great photographers here says the same thing - take a gazillion shots, maybe one or two will be good.
It's another whole thing to do, on top of the foraging. I'm not so focused on going that extra step to get the wowza photos, I'm satisfied if I can just get a shot with good focus and decent lighting. Dealing with reflectors and diffusers is not what I'm doing at this point in my life.
Just do it at whatever level you're comfortable with, we're not your boss.
