Japanese maple tree in my backyard, 2 days ago. Today those leaves are noticeably browner.

Acer palmatum, likely var dissectum. Do a google image on that. Awesome tree.

Wonderful Mushroom Marzena!

Thanks, larkspur

Coprinus comatus. It looks more or less nice when it is young, but when it gets older (and that means just a day or two) its edge turns into disgusting black, dripping fluid. Calling this particular mushroom wonderfull is an abuse of the word

I want to live in the world the way larkspur sees it.

Meet you there

I would like to start taking mushroom photos. They have piqued my interest for some reason.
I shall have to find some first...

I tend to look at everything like I was seeing it through the camera. Gets me in trouble sometimes while I am driving

I imagine that would annoy one's spouse/s.o. too.

Not if I'm using a macro lens.

Cool tree. Our cat loves to hang out under it on hot summer days. I keep the branches trimmed back from touching the ground, mainly so we can tell if he's under there.

I did Andre's suggested google search, but haven't make it past the Wikipedia article. Just need a wee bit more free time.
