A guy with the group we went with also had 3 books on fungi and his had a slightly different name. phallus multicolour. Quick search on the net shows both names for similar fungi. Hmmmmmm I haven't yet made diffusers for the flashes. Is on the to do list tho.

My very first peso :) G'day James They're an attractive pair of fungi. Must be the season for them - I've had several different types come up in my yard in the past few weeks. I really like the top one - excellent colour and sharpness. According to my Fungi field guide it's Dictyophora multicolor, commonly known as stinkhorn because the cap smells like rotting meat as it matures. Not quite so keen on the second one. The mini-umbrella shapes are very attractive but I think the image is spoiled a bit by the highlights caused by the flashes on the background. You can also see the reflections of the flashes on the caps. Perhaps some diffusers on the flash heads would have helped. I agree with Cotty about the watermarks. Bunya Mountains. I love that place - stayed there a couple of times. Thankfully I escaped being 'ticked'! I hope we'll see some more of your work.
