A toxic beauty

Farmington, CT

I was playing golf this morning and spotted these mushrooms under the trees. I'm told that this mushroom is Fly Agaric and that it is toxic. So look don't taste. :)

Outstanding capture. The mushrooms colors are pretty vibrant. No wonder it's toxic. :-) Very well done, Frank. By the way, do you like the Lumix-LX3 Camera ?
