Sorry ... but I just HAD to post this : ) This small mushroom looked absolutely gorgeous in the forest at Bentz Lake Natural Area (north of Calgary, west of Sundre) last week. The cap just seemed to glow and the colour was amazing.

I have hundreds of fungi photos but know the names of maybe half a dozen of them. If anyone is able to identify any of my photos, I would appreciate it so much!

I've always liked the edging of this fungus - makes a neat pattern especially when viewed in a larger size.

I haven't identified these fungi but I just liked seeing them against the patterned wood. Best seen in a larger size.

Noticed this beauty along the bank of a small creek in a local park. It was all alone, close to some exposed tree roots.
