My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Scarlet Elf Cup

 



These are Scarlet Elf Cup mushrooms. They look pretty funky and amazing I think. They stand out as they are bright red! And I have just checked they are edible too, if cooked thoroughly!
