Nine of my favourite landscape and fungi photos I took in September 2024

The photos are of; views at Andrew's Mare in the New Forest and Lakeside Country Park, the impressive super harvest moon which was amazing to see, view from Brownsea Island, views at Thursley and Milford on Sea, view from a boat trip down the Beaulieu River and across to Newtown Harbour, mushroom at Lakeside and a mushroom I believe a chanterelle on Brownsea Island.

It was brilliant to go to so many beautiful places in September, enjoying vibrant and rich heathland, woodland, coast, wetlands, parkland, meadow and pleasurable panoramic views. There were so many breathtaking vistas to see. There were other great mushrooms seen this month as we go into autumn including earthball, charcoal burner, parasol, possible fairy ring marasmius, shaggy scalycap and lilac bonnet, giant polypore and deceiver with wolf's milk slime mould and lichen nice to see too.
