Amanita pantherina

Lower Colliery Dam

POISONOUS!!

It contains the same toxins as A. muscaria, but apparently in higher concentrations.
Large doses can be fatal! It is said to be one of the most common causes of
mushroom poisoning in the Pacific Northwest........."David Arora"

I like how you shot this from such a low angle. It makes such a dramatic image and shows details normally hidden.
