    There is no G. lucidum from these images. The images come from canon sd1400, not iPhone. Maybe it is kind of dark for your eyes.

    We don't have that much sunshine or daylight in Seattle around this time of the year, and maybe to spring of next year.

    Resinaceum is supposed to be the lucidum- synonymous.

    Look like I am going to spend sometimes in the woods to search for more fungi to photograph. Fungi photography is nearly an obsession for me.

    I am always amazed to discover the vibrant colors and odd shapes that they take.
