Hi Dave,

The first is a very beautiful shot of Ampulloclitocybe clavipes. The deeply funnel-shaped cap and the contrasting stem/gill colour are unmistakable

The second two are Inocybe species...The first reminds me of I.lanuginosa but these are basically impossible without some microscopy.

Cheers,
Nick

Many thanks for your kind comment and for your help Nick.

The Ampulloclitocybe clavipes was on the side of a forest track and i must have taken over a dozen photos of it, none of which i was happy with, so i decided to go back for it and try again. The issue was in focusing and the poor light made it tricky to capture so i laid the camera on the ground and used the articulating screen to achieve the desired angle, pressing the shutter only when the light was optimum and focusing was correct, helped by the camera being static with zero shake.

I would have got down flat on the ground but there is little chance these days of being able to get back up without making a spectacle of myself!
