This macro photograph captures the ethereal beauty of several Oudemansiella mucida, commonly known as Beechwood Sickener or Porcelain Fungus, mushrooms. The largest mushroom, positioned centrally, is strikingly translucent, with light shining through its cap and highlighting the delicate structure of its gills. Its cap appears slightly wet or slimy, characteristic of the species. Below it, a smaller, similarly translucent mushroom emerges from a dark, textured substrate, likely a decaying tree stump or log. Even smaller, button-like mushrooms are visible at the base. The background is a soft, dark green blur, emphasizing the luminous quality of the fungi. The overall impression is one of natural wonder and delicate illumination in a forest setting. The photo evokes a sense of tranquility and magic. Copyright by Hans Enderl.
