Thank you to all who joined us in the dune forest Saturday, and thank you Christian @biodiversiphile for setting our minds on fire… and sharing your Mushroom Photography #protips:

1.  Get close. “We are not herpatologists, these are not rattlesnakes, they will not hurt you.”

2. Feature multiple mushrooms in different states in one photo.

3. Show multiple angles all at one.

4. Lighting is everything. Block direct sunlight. Friends make perfect light shields.

Join mycoeducators extraordinaire Christian and Noah Siegel @mycohobo for Mushrooms of Cascadia: The Fungal Paradise of the PNW…

This 5-part class will take you into some deep and fascinating mushroom knowledge so we can all better understand these amazing planetary neighbors!
