The mushrooms so individual and organic, growing as a unit and a family. This first photo shows mushrooms growing out of a block of pungent cheese. Here it is, viewed under glass:

I just watched Miss Potter, about Beatrix Potter, and she was quite the fan of sketching mushrooms. They are intensely complex and strange little things...but somehow organically very beautiful too.
