Nice photo. I have a huge collection of photos of fungi I took when I
was in CA. I would love to identify all of them and start learning how
to ID edible mushrooms but I'm a bit afraid to eat any.

With only photos you will only be able to identify a few obvious ones
but its a place to start. Get a field guide to mushrooms with lots of
pictures and start comparing them. If you think you have a match,
Google the name and get more info.

You will find that the next time you find a mushroom, you will need lots
more details to help identify it.

There are lots of mushroom books out there but I think the best place to
start in the Audubon one.
