Hi friends, during our exploring in Epping Forest (Essex) i encountered with this most strange mushroom between the fallen spring leaves that naturally I laughed so much:)
Indeed I am also laughing while uploading to TN this too. I am pretty sure that there is a bit of a reason to blush but that is absolutely a natural and nature do not know shame:) After searching the web I saw so many related ones. It was very interesting that this mushroom is belonging to Boletus edulis (Penny Bun, Porcino or Cep) [in Turk. Çörek Mantarı]. I saw two similar ones around the same area (one in WS) that I though this shape might be a characteristics of a species. After the confirmation by our mushroom expert friend László Kaposvari (Hormon_Manyer) -[thanks my friend!]- I understood that this unusal or accidental case of the species.
I am sure Laszlo can give more detaled info about this unusual situation:)

By the way, I am so sorry if I behaved shamefully uploading this natural one:D

You can find more info on the species clicking on HERE (English) or HERE (Turkish).

TFL and have a nice week!
Cheers,

This one is looking rather strange MF Bayram. You have managed very good collection of specimen from your short visit in the UK. The capture is really good but once again, this is an amazing catch.
Kind regards,
Jusni

Hello MF Bayram.
I like this mushroom photo a lot, the colours are soft, with a nice composition.well done.Best regards Siggi

Merhaba Bayram Hocam,
İnsan yorum yazmaya biraz ürkse:) de kendi halinde doğal bir mantar fotosu olmuş. Birine dedike edilmemesi en sevindirici tarafı. Millet uyuyor. Bomba yarın patlar.

Merhaba MF Prof. Bayram,

Well seen in great excitement.

Hola Bayram

Vaya que desproporción, un tallo tan gordo y un sombrero tan pequeño. Que original es este hongo. Buen POV.

Un saludo de Antonio

Günaydın hocam, bu sabah yerlerdeyim:) doğada neler oluyor neler.
Gerçekten çok ilginç:) Hiç böyle bir mantar görmemiştim. Gören gözlerinize ve objektifinizxe sağlık.
Saygılar,
Nazım

Do not be ashamed from this upload friend Bayram! That's a fungi isn't it? Seems you have a good eye to spot strange things in the forest! You have marked this specie in your own presentation in a Fungal Beauties Theme! Strange! Personally, I do not find it particularly beautiful, but you know it's a question of personal taste!
Regards,
George Veltchev

Günaydın Bayram hocam,
İlk anda aklıma gelen şu oldu ,doğaya zarar verenlere doğanın güzel bir hediyesi :) doğal ortamından güzel bir mantarı iyi bir açıdanda çekmişsiniz elinize sağlık.
Saygılar hocam..

Absolutely superb presentation of the young Boletus edulis, you don't have to feel any "shame"! This is nature. All the use of flash, contrast, color saturation, focus are second to none. A real fungal beauty. Bravo.

İyi geceler Bayram Hocam,
Bu ormanda gezerken düşmemeye dikkat etmek lazım:)Bayanların yorum yapmakta zorlanacağı,harika bir fotograf olmuş.Üzerine bir kelebeği eksik:)Gece vakti güldürdün beni Dostum:)
Selamlar,ellerine sağlık..

Bayram bey, sen benim çiçeği bişeylere benzetin bu mantar da benim çiçeğin herhalde üst kısmı oluyor.Harika bir kare .Ben de bulsam çekmeden önce bol bol gülerdim(buna benzer bir tür de bizde var "utanmazsam" ben de yükleycem:))
Sami

Selamlar,
Şöyle bir bakıp çıkayım çok az zamanım var derken bu fotoğrafı gördüm,
Birden ilham geldi:)
Son çalışmama bakıp yorum yazanlara teşekkür ettikten sonra hemen ilham kaynağına döndüm :)
Çok farklı türleri ve çok farklı persfektifleri yakalıyorsunuz.
Bakış açınızı tebrik ediyorum.
Zaten fotoğraflarınız mükemmel.
En güzel dileklerimle,
hoşcakalın.

İyi akşamlar sevgili Bayram,
Nice capture with excellent POV and beautiful colours. You are lucky to find this strange Boletus edulis, with unusual shape. Maybe it took this form as mimicry :)) When nature surprises us and makes us laugh, not reason to be ashamed! And I see that many TN members found this shot inspiring... Selam ve sevgiler,
Cathy

Hello Bayram,
I wasn't sure how to critique this for obvious reasons, because I too had to laugh when I first brought it up on the screen. This is nature so it just goes to show you that nature has a sense of humor as well.
Wonderful low POV and beautiful natural coloration. TFS.
Ron

Hi Bayram

Nothing escapes your scientist's eyes anywhere (even under leaves :-))

I have a theme for unusual fungi, where your image found a home.

But after reading your notes again and checking literature about ''Boletus edulis'', I added your image also to the theme ''anomalies''.

Both your notes and the photo, as well as the workshop are very interesting.

TFS

Verite

To funny Bayram, what are the chances of coming across such a unique shaped fungi. Once in a lifetime I'm sure. Setting aside the humor...this is well composed and the low view shows off it's unique shape well.

Ciao BBB. Indeed "strange" this fungi's specie! Very good colours and contrast against the black BG. TFS.

Roberto

Interesante documento este capricho de la naturaleza.
Saludos Bayram.

hello Bayram

excellent macro shot of this Fungi,
with fine POV and appropriate framing,
fine focus sharpness and details, beautiful light,

TFS

Hello Bayram,

A fine mushroom portrait! Don't let the shape embarrass you, that's just the nature of many mushrooms. Nicely photographed!

I have to respectfully disagree with our friend László though, as it is absolutely impossible to say with certainty what species this mushroom is from just this photo. The Boletes have a great many species and several genera with many species that look exactly like this at this stage of development.

Merhaba Bayram.
İş güç dünya telaşeleri derken epeydir siteye girmemiştim. Girince de ilk iş senin fotolara baktım. Tabii epeyce bişeyler kaçırdığımı da o dakika anlamış oldum.
Ama ama ama bu mantar başka mantar yahu. En çok da yeğeninin yorumuna güldüm. Bizim dilde onu başka biyerlerden fırlatırlar ama bırda söylemiim şimdi sen nasılsa anladın onu :)
Gerçekten muhteşem. Eline emeğine sağlık dostum. Selam ve sevgiler.

HAHAHA!!! VERY funny! it's like a...you know...a tool!:)

Good morning little brother

I started a theme called " nature's oddities"

Obviously , your fungi picture is a MUST.
Your notes are very detailed, and very interesting. You spent a long time researching.

Thanks for sharing this oddity of nature
