Glitchtober Day 31: Fatality 🍄

That's the last one for Glitchtober! This was fun, and it was great to see the rest of the Glitchtober art all month 🖤

Macro photo of a mushroom. The forest floor around the mushroom is neon purple and greens and distorted. The mushroom is a bright orange/yellow topper with pixelated stem.

This insanely massive mushroom looks to me like a Phaeocollybia. It was found near where other Phaeocollybia grew, but was about 10x bigger at nearly 1ft tall!

An orange monster of a mushroom grows out of thick brown tree duff; its stipe is about 2 inches wide and stands almost a foot tall, its cap is about 8–10 inches wide and 5 inches tall, and its tightly packed gills are off-white. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/3, ISO 400 Stack of 13 images 9/7/25 Northern Oregon Coast

Centered in the frame, a small parrot mushroom, standing about one inch tall from the ground to the top of its cap, shines in diffused light; its stipe is yellow and its cap is emerald or forest green, and the cap is slightly deformed with a crease near the front, giving it a unique look. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 24 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

Every once in a while, I stumble across and elfin saddle that actually looks like a saddle! Helvella compressa is this one's name

An elfin saddle grows out of light green grass and moss. Its stipe stands just over an inch tall, is relatively thick, and is white. Its cap, which resembles the shape of a saddle, is brown and lumpy. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/5, 1/15, ISO 400 Stack of 15 images 11/22/24 Olympia area, Washington

This is one of my favorite types of fungi: the bird's nest fungus. I'm confident this is the fluted bird's nest fungus, Cyathus striatus.

🍄📷 📸🎞 🌿🌱 🟢 🍄 🍄‍🟫
Covered in spiky brown fuzz, this unusual mushroom is called the fluted bird's nest fungus. Slightly skinnier at the base than at the top, this hairy, cylindrical mushroom looks almost like a drum. Its top is flat and white with a small patch of brown fuzz in the center. As it matures, the top will split open, revealing egg-like, spore-carrying packets that make it appear like a bird's nest. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 40 images 9/14/25 Northern Oregon Coast

Among a sea of light green moss, a black earth tongue grows with a slight bend to the left while something else begins to surround it. Usually, these black earth tongues are entirely black, but this one has a white, bumpy coating from its base to just below the top. The white coating is a parasitic fungus that feeds on black earth tongues. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/2.8, 1/30, ISO 400 Stack of 14 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

There's a spot where these incredible pink Gliophorus mushrooms grow every year in November. I can't wait to go back and see them again!

Blurred green moss surrounds a pink and yellow mushroom. Its stipe is yellow near the bottom and fades to pink near the cap. The cap is mostly pink with some orange near the edges. The cap has flared so widely at the edges that it split in the front, exposing its pinkish-yellow gills.

Bending out of dark, wet cedar duff, a shiny yellow and green mushroom catches some artificial light to help it shine in the dark. This parrot mushroom, Gliophorus psittacinus, has a smooth and slimy yellow stipe that stretches up from the ground to be about two inches tall. Its shiny, conical cap is yellow on the margins but otherwise emerald green. Portions of its creamy and slightly yellow gills are visible in this low-angle shot. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/4, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 19 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

A low-angle, close-up photograph of delicate, pale grey-brown bonnet mushrooms growing out of a lush, bright green bed of moss. The foremost mushroom has a conical, pleated umbrella cap with subtle fluting along its rim. Two smaller, rounded button caps cluster tightly beside it on slender translucent stems. Golden-brown pine needles rest across the moss. In the softly blurred background, autumnal leaf litter and the rounded shape of a larger, golden-brown woodland mushroom fade into soft earth tones under gentle, diffused natural light.

A low-angle, eye-level close-up of a cluster of small, pale beige and cream-coloured mushrooms growing through dry, curled autumn leaves. The delicate, rounded mushroom caps gather tightly together on thin white stems. Behind them, the massive, mossy trunk and wide buttress roots of an old woodland tree rise into soft, out-of-focus greens and earthy shadows. The lighting is diffused and natural, giving the forest floor a peaceful, rustic, and quiet autumn atmosphere.

I love this Hygrocybe singeri! It's a perfect showcase of the multiple colors their caps can have, as well as the blackening effect

Emerging from black and gray decaying fir and cedar duff, a brilliantly colored mushroom glows in the center of the shot. This Hygrocybe singeri, also known as the Western witch's hat, has a smooth, fibrous-looking bright yellow stipe. Its tall, conical cap, which resembles a witch's hat, is multicolored, featuring a blend of red, orange, and black. The black color is produced from the cap decaying, a unique trait of this beautiful mushroom. 📷 Canon R5 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM M, f/3.5, 1/5, ISO 400 Stack of 16 images 11/21/24 Olympia area, Washington

A golden-colored mushroom emerges from flat dark brown soil. Its stipe is short and stands only an inch above the ground. The shiny cap is almost taller than the stipe and is the same golden color.

The western bitter bolete is a mostly pale yellow bolete with a magical characteristic: it stains blue when bruised or cut. To show off this fun color-changing ability, my wife cut a slice of the cap off and wrote "I'm blue" in the yellow pores of the slice, and the words immediately turned a deep blue, along with the cut edges of the mushroom. 📷 Canon R5 Mk II Canon RF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Canon Speedlight Flash Cygnus Tech Diffuser M, f/5.6, 1/4, ISO 400 Single image 10/3/26 Northern Oregon Coast
