Suspected A Muscaria

Hello all.
Wondering if you guys wouldn't mind giving me your input on a few pics I got of what I believe to be Amanita muscaria. When I found the specimens, I did not take much care in detailed photos or anything, simply because I believed it was almost a sure thing of what I had. But after a few doubts raised on their ID, I figured I would ask you experts. Here are the pics.



In the first and second pics, the pic doesn't accurately show the color of the caps. They were in reality not as red as the last pic (which was a mushroom that wasn't as mature as the others), but definitely had more red in them than the pic shows.
These were found in Georgia btw

Yes indeedy. When identifying Amanitas, it is good to do as in your second picture exposing the basal portion of the mushroom, but also good to take close macro shots of it when doing so.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

So you agree that it is A muscaria? I had a good feeling it was, I have seen russula before and could tell it wasn't that, but after the doubts I got about them I just wanted to pop in over here and be sure.
Sorry again about the pics, I wasn't taking pics specifically for getting them ID'd since I was pretty sure what I had. Thank you for the help.
