MORE MUSHROOMS

As you can probably see from my below posts I've been photographing mushrooms and here's a few of my favourites. 










And while I don't like eating mushrooms they do make for some lovely photographs.





A SPOT OF MUSHROOM FORAGING





It's that time of year for a bit of mushroom foraging and experts don't come better qualified than Nik Westacott. I did a video (HERE) of Nik mushroom hunting last year but this year I wanted to get some photographs of him whilst foraging in woods around Chichester in West Sussex. It was a perfect day. Not too cold, bit misty and a lot of moisture in the air to get the 'wet' look on the shrooms. There were quite a few of the highly prized chanterelles around as well. Nik offers foraging courses and had a few clients along and I bet they had a great feast which Nik was cooking up later at his b&b in Fishbourne.
