Something autumnal that isn't just autumn colours and leaves, I couldn't see a previous challenge about fungi. So let's see your mushrooms, toadstools and any other kinds of fungi from times past...

As usual the following rules apply:

- Must be taken by you
- Must be on film
- Must have been taken, developed and scanned prior to the start date of this challenge.
- Discussion in the discussion thread (link below) rather than this Entries thread, please.

Please include details of the camera, lens, film etc and anything else of relevance if you can possibly remember that far back.

Entries until 23.59 Saturday 7 December.

Please keep all discussion and comments in the "new old film discussion thread" https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/t...discussion-thread.698995/page-22#post-9548798
 
OK let me start with 3 tiny mushrooms on the side of a woodland log...

Pentax LX and SMC Pentax K 55mm f/1.8 (basically the old Takumar formula) and well-expired Sensia 100, defrosted for some autumn goodness that felt like it was indefinitely delayed due to (what felt like) weeks of perpetual gloom.
 
Fly Agaric at Derwent.jpg

This would have been taken around 2010-14 probably with one or other of my Contax RTS cameras and a Tamron 90mm macro lens and Fuji Superior film. I checked the slide but there was no date on it as far as I could see. The scene is under a bridge that spans the River Derwent as it enters the Howden Dam. I recall having to lie on the bank to get the view that I wanted.

Well done @Clive K , great photo of the fly agaric (I believe), beautifully framed. Over to you for the next challenge...
 
Thank you.

As this theme was not as popular as most I'll suggest a topic that everybody should be able to find a photo to enter.
