This could be a Candy Cap but it's not likely. It's also probably fully mature. But it's appearance poking through the lichen is that of a youngster. I decreased the overall yellow saturation to make the lichen whiter in this one. The lichen is naturally white.

Russian riddle:

Маленький,
удаленький,
сквозь землю прошел,
красну шапочку нашел

Nice riddle Igor.  Gotta love the online translators.

Nice image too!  I like the lichen framing the would-be youngster.  And your comp give a good sense of the habitat.  Nice shot!

This is a lovely intimate shot of lichen and fungus. You hit the jackpot. I like this one much better than the last one you posted because the mushroom gives it more focus and color and it is interesting to look closely at the lichen, which is so delicate and beautiful. This is top notch.

This is a beautiful, intimate landscape, Igor.  The orange mushroom pops nicely in both texture and color.  The colors look spot on to me.
