    On my previous job I would regularly walk with colleagues and see these yellow fungi, but I never had a camera with me. I wanted to photograph them on another moment but I never did. Now when I see these nice photo's I have to think about the missed opportunity. Posted 11 years ago

      No worries, they seem to be everywhere, at least in the forests near me. Posted 11 years ago
