Bioluminescent fungi

At first glance you might not notice the light green glow appearing between the mushrooms' gills in the dead of night. But soon your eyes adjust and you can spot it: bioluminescent fungi growing in a cluster attached to a dead tree stump in the middle of the Australian bush. It is "mushroom photography" season and sightings of fungi glowing in the dark on the NSW South Coast are captivating photographers and researchers alike.
