NIKON Z 7 + 90.0 mm f/2.8 @ 90 mm, 1/100 sec at f/5.6, ISO 500

Is it typical for these Omphalotus nidiformis (ghost mushroom) to get this large? This is the first one of these that I’ve come across and photographed in real life. Most of the images I’ve seen online appear to indicate that they are typically much smaller. Tho it is hard to tell without some frame of reference

This shot just gives you an idea just how large this single specimen is. I’d say easily 30cm across

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.
