These were found in the wooded areas around the car park of Wellngton Country Park two days ago.
The first was only about 1cm across. I lit it with flash on an L-bracket, with a second unit, freestanding, to the left. The web stretching down from the cap to the stem suggests it is a Cortinarius
The other three (individual fruiting bodies) were closer to 10cm or so across.
The second one was lit in a similar way but with the freestanding flash aimed at the stems. It is one of the Boletini, a Leccinum species.
The third is not damaged, it is supposed to look like that. It is Helvella criispa and was lit with a single flash.
The last are cups of a Peziza species which I was unable to identify. I tried for a blend of flash and the pleasing low sun.
EM-1, Kiron 105mm f11 or f16, hand-held.

Thanks, Brian.
This was a private trip, rather than having to keep up with a group. So I could concentrate fully on the photography.
