Sunrise over the millpond. Morning wander with the dogs. A deer leaves quickly at the sight of us.

This sheela na gig is on display in the Ulster Museum.

It is thought to have originally belonged to the church of Errigal Keerogue, Tyrone.
A stone carving known as a sheela na gig. It is classed as a female exhibitionist figure. It has a pained expression with gritted teeth and round staring eyes, and pendulous breasts. The right arm extends forward over the vulva; and the left backwards and under the leg.

Today's hike up Cerro San Luis mountain with fog in the valleys.

#ECK #Hiking #Weather #Photography #LandscapePhotography #WestCoastKin
Black and white image of a mountain slope going from lower left to upper right. There is fog that blankets the lower elevations, so it is pure white. The fog starts to thin on the mountain slope revealing some oak trees and vegetation. The trail is visible on the right side with low vegetation on each side. The foreground has some rocks that the sun is hitting directly, creating a strong contrast in their formation. In the absolute foreground are silhouettes of dry weeds that look like separated pompoms on a stem. In the distance, black mountains poke just above the fog with a few wispy clouds in an otherwise clear sky. 'M' Trail on Cerro San Luis in San Luis Obispo, California.

Signs of autumn everywhere. Walked the dogs through the fields. Spotted lots of interesting fungi. I know one is #flyagaric
Any ideas for the other one? 🍄‍🟫🍄
