Description
This is some kind of fungus growing on the trunk of an old plum tree. They look like shells, one of the reasons I like them so much!!

The colors are wonderful. I haven't seen the blue fungus but while in Ft.Bragg, I was able to see lots of mushrooms in various colors. My daughter-in-law went mushroom harvesting in the forest behind her house and was able to sell a good portion to a local buyer. Its that fungus time of the year.
In my part of the world they called turkey tail fungus. Wonderful to see a blue and orange layers together.
They are very pretty!
A fascinating photo. The rings on the fungus remind me of tree rings. Never having studied fungus, I wonder if there is any connection, i.e., does each ring on the fungus indicate a day's growth or something? Just wondering out loud here...no need to answer. Good job.
The image is just gorgeous! What a lovely colored fungus!
now that's some serious cool fungus!!!!

Say now, they do look like shells from the seashore at that, only more colorful. Stellar lighting and contrast really bring out the bright colors of the multitextured fungi, Marilyn!
wonderful colors. I saw blues ones before but so long ago. Faries sit on these and talk to one another. at night if you set there you will hear them in they strange voices
Great colors and so many. Dana P
Fantastic colors and shapes, full of textures. I've never seen the purple colored ones.
Seeing fungi close up is like seeing a highly talented person that few know but whose talent knocks you out: You want to say, "where've you been all these years—you're terrific!" Fungi close up are always knock outs. I don't know where the rings come from either, though i'd like to find out...You caught a very musical swaying bunch, and in various colors too. They're primal and yet very refined. And I like that you caught them 'in medias res', in a way that makes us feel they go on forever & we just came in in the middle. Exciting shot of one of nature's most mysterious organisms...
The pattern and coloring of those fungi remind me chines plates -- very beautiful! Fantastic shot!
