Mushroom photography

Mushrooms are very common to see in the forest because many people use them to cook different dishes. I found these mushrooms when I was working on my farm, so I took this white mushroom. In the Yórúbá language, we call it 'olu,' and some supermarkets often sell it for those who love to eat it. Those who love to eat it are called mycophagists.

I am not a lover of mushroom consumption because some of them are poisonous, but I love to take photographs of them anytime I see them in the bush. Mushrooms give us a better outlook. In fact, it's one of the traditional healing activities that most people use to cure their ailments.

Humans use mushrooms to dye different kinds of clothes that they wear to different occasions. Mushrooms grow slowly in the forest, and they serve as an economic growth opportunity for small farmers in rural areas.
