in #colorchallenge8 years ago (edited)

This is a vermilion waxcap (Hygrocybe miniata), a very small and very red mushroom, as a fresh start of a new week of Colour Challenge photos:

They look like this when they are a bit older:

Should be red enough 8-).

The color of certain mushrooms is stunning .... Beautiful picture

Thank you.

Very red, and very poisonous I would guess.

To my surprise, the books say "edible, but of no consequence".

This little guy with unusual red hat is a miracle of nature!
Thanks for your post, and steem on!

The colour of the first mushroom is so striking against the contrasting green. As is the second against the duller grey brown. Textures are beautiful too. Really surprised it's edible though. 🌿🍄🌿

Wow. The colors of these mushrooms are amazing! Very well done!
