Igor -YOu should try  Sulphur shelf sometime it is yummy and can't be confused with anything deadly - I was never confident enough in my diagnosis to gather anything that had a seriously poisonous
look alike. ..

Thanks Igor.
I haven't yet seen the armillaria (honey fungus) this season. Last year I saw these in October -  they are also nice photo subjects.

That's a very attractive photo, especially at a higher(tighter) zoom level, where you can see every detail, as a few people have pointed out already.
The glow is a nice touch!

Despite being avid mushroom gatherers (and eaters), we've never gathered
any of this type. Of all the mushrooms growing on trees and stumps, we only gathered Armillaria - which we liked a lot! Those are tasty and easy to handle, as they are almost never damaged by larva ("worms").

(Fun fact: in Russian, sulphur shelf/sulphur polypore mushrooms are called "trutoviki", which shares the word root with "truten'" - drone bee; this root means "parasite". These mushrooms are sometimes regarded as "sanitarians of forests" that help keeping the forests healthy, but seen as "pests" in personal gardens, as they ensure a quick death of your favorite fruit tree.)
