Gorgeous Mushrooms Pop Up At Lake Chabot: Photo Of The Day

CASTRO VALLEY, CA — Bonnie Polson took this remarkable photo of mushrooms at Lake Chabot earlier this month. Bonnie shared her photography tips, "I brought my macro lens, and focus-stacked these to get them all in focus. I loved how they were growing together, up on the side of the walking path."

The focus and lighting are remarkable, Bonnie! Thank you for sharing this beautiful image with Patch readers.

Reminder for all readers, beware of toxic mushrooms.
