Ink cap mushrooms grow in tight groups near a stone-paved area.
An interesting patch of mushrooms is seen from a close-angle view above. The grouping of numerous ink cap mushrooms is right next to a wood fence on a stone-paved area. The mushrooms have grown in a few very tight groups. An older group that is decaying is right against the fence, while the fresher growths are to the right of that group. A small clump grows on the other side of a sprout of grass to the bottom left, and a few grow together a few inches away from the large group. A few small sprouts of grass come up between the rocks. The mushrooms are interesting in the way that they are almost camouflaged by the stones that surround them. The fence creates a diagonal border across the image from the middle left to the top right. It is weathered and aging, growing green mildew on the bottom of it where the moisture has held. The overcast day gives a perfect, moist feel to the image.
