Maitake mushrooms
This week's photohunt theme is Hands. Here are a couple of pictures of my best friend's hands. These were taken on our getaway to the Oregon Coast. She is holding a couple of mushroom types that we found at the local farmer's market and an agate that we found at the beach. The mushrooms were from Rainforest Mushrooms
Lions Mane Mushrooms
Beach Agate

Hi Marta, I've never seen these types of mushrooms too. How interesting to see the variety and many thanks to your friend for displaying them for us. Great take on this week's theme.
Have a wonderful weekend.

The maitake was very good. The lions mane was more difficult to cook and was okay. I'd definitely get maitake again.

Great post! I am with everyone else, I have never seen anything like that before.
I also loved you photos of Snoqualmie Falls, my favorite time to see them, is when the rivers are flooding, because you know the falls will be roaring!
Happy week end.
