Very cool! Lately, I've read about those weird looking fungi. They are called Xylaria polymorpha or, commonly, dead man's fingers :)))

How bizarre! It really does look like ghoulish fingers. Great detail!

Wow with that background it really looks like a hand reaching up from the ground. Excellent Dennis! \/
