I'm going through my images for autumnal creatures .. found these

Shot #1 .. these are a bit too "tender" for me to decide the species.

Not sure, but I think #2 and #3 are edible: Coprinus comatus (lawyer's wig .. in danish, Paryk blækhat)

Too many mushrrom and fungi induced deaths here in Australia for me to pick from the field.  Maybe the fungii one finds in European forests are safer - I most certainly hope so.  Pretty though.

There are, but only young.

Francis - thanks for the advice.

Very nice shot. I'm no expert, only curious. Maybe it's Laccaria amethystinathe. It's common, colour is special and its shape can be both curved and depressed. It has gills and they have same violet colour.

#1: A Puffball - Lycoperdon perlatum as far as I've googled..
 
#2: An invasion of mushrooms. Looks like Ink caps (Coprinus atramentarius) and probably other species.

Could be Rhodopaxillus nudus, edible but only after cooking.

That was the name by which I knew it as a child (when my father was teaching me mushrooms), now they have changed its name to Lepista nuda. Commonplace but confusing habit to change the names, so a mushroom has at least two-three aliases, like pornstars... It is also known as Agaricus nudus; Clitocybe nuda; Gyrophila nuda; Tricholoma nudum

And thank you Francis for that last nice series!
Here is another dried one I found on a forrest hike not long ago. Pretty big one - or maybe two growing very close. And a few smaller ones on a broken tree.

Amanita phalloides and Amanita citrina side by side

Deadly poisonous (on left) and edible (on right). Easy to get confused if you are not an expert. AVOID BOTH

Amanita citrina smells of potato, A.phalloides has a foulish smell, especially the older samples.

Gyroporus cyanescens aka Boletus cyanescens

Turns pale green when sliced, after some minutes the greenish tinge vanishes.
NOT NECESSARILY a sign of poison, as a matter of fact this one is quite good. We made a fantastic risotto with mushroom sauce
