Craigo79 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Went out to look at the Omphalotus nidiformis Unfortunately a little bit late in the season and they are a bit old but here are some shots from the night. Long exposure showing how they glow.. UVIVF Image A tiny mushroom on a log UVIVF Millipede UVIVF Link to comment
Stefano Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Very nice images. That mushroom glowimg is so cool! It would be interesting to see if it emits invisible light too (if it does it's probably infrared). Link to comment

Andy Perrin Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Logs are great fluorescence targets. These are all amazing images. It would be interesting to see what Stefano said, if they emit infrared also. Link to comment
dabateman Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 That looks great.Too bad that fungi is poisonous and causes vomiting. Would be fun to be glowing. Link to comment

OlDoinyo Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Chemiluminescent fungi are interesting--their glow has been referred to as "foxfire" in ages past. Link to comment
