Thanks Mepo. Hope I some time learn also to think in English.

Old Finn: Glad to hear that - neither would I LOL I was just a youngster and we ate mushrooms and fungi that were always from the same places. I know English is not your first language so I should explain my pun - much-room sounds a bit like mushroom :-)

Thanks for the comments. Mepo, I donīt know its name, but people here donīt eat it, I suppose.

I like this one better than the 'flying fungi' but once again I am impressed by natures display (and your photo). I think this is Oyster Fungus, I used to have a friend that would fry it up with butter when it was young - this bunch look quite old. In my tt.
Let's face it - with all these fungi in your photo there is not much-room for anything else. Sorry - I couldn't resist that.

Thanks for the nice comments. These fungi were growing on an old tree stump.

Ugly , yet intriguing. Abstract, yet recognisable. Great contrast. I makes me want to reach out and feel the texture.

I like this, though there is more detail than I would like. As in the challenge description, the abstract should not be literal. This is literally a bunch of fungi, but after gazing upon it for a while, the abstraction you intended comes through. TT for me. Good Luck in the voting!

Yes, this will place highly. Pure photography, and pure abstract.
