    This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

    I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

    The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

    Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

    Autumn has arrived, the weather does change but still there will be days with nice weather.
    Those days are perfect for a hike and enjoying the time outside in nature.
    And the obvious signs are there: mushrooms and the leaves are changing color 😉

    Photobygms,

    Autumn is the time to find these fungi. It's hard to find them sometimes without any blemishes or defects. I like the red ones the best.

    A nice collection of funghi! I have never seen this one in real life. Is it not a poisonous toadstool?

    It's a fly agaric or amanita, seems to be poisonous, smaller animals like smaller breeds of dogs can die after eating these.

  • Oct. 1, 2025, 11:51 a.m.

    Amanita muscaria, poisonous, but generally not deadly for humans. Shamans use it to get into the trance; some people use it as hallucinogenic drug (in very small quantities).

    Very decorative :)
