I think I had a hat like this at one time.
This is a huge mushroom and I know, I know. I posted one yesterday. But I live just outside of the Mushroom Capital of the World and they grow big here, I guess.
When I touched the edges, I expected it to fold in where the "tucks" are, but it was solid.
To give you an idea of their size, I've posted a picture of George here, checking them out.

Almost looks like an animal's skin. Great picture.
Beautiful, astonishing photos! I found you through Caroline's Black Boxes widget.
Hope George didn't get a snoutfull of "puff"!
Neat photos!
I can't believe how huge that thing is! Both posts, yesterday and today are beautiful. I especially love the lighting in yesterday's.
Thanks, Louise. I love yesterday's a lot. Today's is ok. But there's something about that fungus among us. Really.
"I think I had a hat like this at one time..."
I did a spit take on that one. You are hysterical! Those mushrooms are amazing, and I love your photos. Can you imagine George jumping back if the mushroom had moved while he was investigating it? They ARE kinda scary-looking...
...Looks like a couple of fungis...(*giggle*)...Get it?...(*giggle*)"Fun-guys"?...(*snort*giggle*)... ;oD
...I love the masthead up there too btw...beautiful!
...Blessings... :o)
Wow! Is that a freak of nature or what?
Never seen anything like it.
Holy cow!!! Those are big scary mushrooms. I have this slight fear of mushrooms.
Anyone else?
I've never seen a mushroom so big! It is HUGE and George looks like "what the heck is this"! They are growing like crazy here where I live as well;)
Question:
I want to start participating in Sky watch friday.
I have the link up with picture in my sidebar. I have a phote ready for tomorrow with a link back to the site. I just can't find Mr. Linky on the skywatch site to add my URL. Help??
Holy cow! That's huge. I've never seen a mushroom so big. No wonder the trolls can live under them! Great shots! They look very cool.
*hugs*
fatntastic!
My Grandfather was a certified "shroomer" and I so wish he was still alive to show me they way!
Came via Black Box - beautiful photos. Are any of these mushrooms edible?
Can you carve it for Halloween? Its like Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin ...

Those things aren't reeeeeeally real, are they???? They are just freaky weird!
WOW! Wonderful photos. Fungi are amazing in their variety. Have not seen one like this before.
Nice shot and report. Marvelous.
Wow, those are huge!
Oh, my goodness! Those are huge! None of the puffballs on the farm I grew up on (in Manitoba) ever got that big!
