We didn't find very many fungi in a local wood after a long dry period but we did find this stage of the slime mould where it becomes a smooth, dome structure prior to releasing cocoa-coloured spores.These (first image)were about the size of the palm of my hand.
EM-1, Kiron 105mm, twin flash, hand-held.
The first two images are from the same species in my garden in 2012 and show the stage just before the domed one.
E-P2, Leitz Wetzlar Elmarit 60mm macro, f11, ISO 200, tripod, time delay. Metering was either off a green leaf and locked or by compensation of +1.7. The brilliant whiteness made focusing exceptionally difficult.
