Maine! Golden Trumpet

Xeromphalina campanella, or Golden Trumpet (aka Fuzzy Foot): Kennebunk, Maine, USA, August 2024 — I found this stump along the Bridle Trail in Kennebunk, absolutely covered with what I think is Golden Trumpet mushrooms. There was a shaft of sun highlighting the little mushrooms and they were attracting quite a few slugs and bugs as well. All three of them shots were taken with the Tamron 50-400 Di iii VC VXD zoom at between 75 and 110mm equivalent. At those focal lengths the lens reaches 1:2 magnification, so near macro and is great for this kind of work. Sony a6700. Program mode with my macro modifications. Processed in Photomator. Assembled in FrameMagic.
