Thank you Francis!
Now that I have seen how CMYK looks like I feel much better.

Now here is a bit of structure, although not one I would be able to follow properly :)

Francis, I am not certain what it is, but it doesn't look very appealing to me :)

Well, many gourmet people would spend big money to flavor some food, though...

Now it's an easy guess, caviar or fish eggs :)

I also think it is a sliced piece of truffle.

Correct !

This is actually a cut of summer truffle (tuber aestivum) Pictured below.

Its much cheaper (half price) than the famous and sough after Tuber melanosporum and much less flavored.

And one made by nature.

Great one. I've lots of them in the garden and never looked at them like that.

Thanks, Bruno !

Your garden must be very wet ?

This specie (Equisetum palustris) is very inconspicuous and always in water.

Rather uncommon.

When I am in the field, taking pictures of these plants, the rare walkers passing by, always ask me ''What are you shooting ?'' :D

Just a small correction. Your plant definitively is not E. palustris, but E. fluvatile. A plant of very wet meadows, slow flowing rivers and lake margins, able to growing to about 1.5 m depth under optimal conditions. It is a very common species at least in northern Europe.

My garden is at the bottom of a valley and rather wet indeed, with Caltha palustris, Filipendula ulmaria and Iris pseudacorus but, you're right, not with this Equisetum. I have the more common E. arvense but there is a 1 meter high Equisetum station nearby which you and Bjørn make me think I should check next spring.

That "1 m high Equisetum" might be E. telmateia (see below). Easily recognised by its bright stem, puffed-up node sheaths, and the prolific occurrence of thin non-branched leaves. It prefers fertile soils usually not very damp.

From memory, they look exactly like that, on the border of a stream, under few trees. A dense mix of thinner leaves than E. arvense
