Hi Keith hope you're well, I've never seen one of those before it looks like something from another planet. Great video with some great views as the look for the devils finger.A great image of the Devils finger, amazing colours. I still wait to get out for some autumn photography,but nature is against me started rainning when i left work on friday and it still rainning now (Sunday) i can't even do a video of my new amazon delivery as it to noisy in the conseratory, just like being in the caravan in a heavy rain storm.
Best wishes stay safe Jon & Karen

Hi Jon, hope you are both well. It’s a very strange one, from the family of rather aptly named stinkhorns. It’s always the way, something always gets in the way of photography, unfortunately it’s British weather usually. I’m sure you will get out one day , can’t wait to see the images.

Wow, that’s a strange, but very nice mushroom. Never even heard of it before, let alone see one. Cheers Keith & love the ground shot close up.👌👍

Thanks mark. It’s a stinkhorn family of fungi, very interesting aren’t they 😊

That felt very risky asking a member of the public if they'd seen "Devil's Finger" 🤣🤣
Great video... Never heard of it before now

I was desperate Neil, I was willing to take the chance. Thankfully he knew what I was referring too 😂 it’s most definitely a very strange fungi.
On the 10th of December video I have Cardio hill beat hands down mate. I filmed the B-Roll thinking of your video 👍🏻
