Gyromitra infula

Original - Gyromitra infula, a species of mushroom commonly known as the Elfin Saddle or the Hooded False Morel, photographed in northern Saskatchewan.

Reason: A wonderfully weird looking fungus, added to the article a few months ago. Great profile shot, you can see everything of importance about the fungi, but it is a little blurry at high resolution, meaning it wouldn't manage at FPC. The environment in which the fungi is found is also well displayed.
