Eliza Waters 
Such wonderful color and texture.
Ditto
Merci, Sheree!
Thank you, Sandy. I just loved this little gem.
Oooh, cool! the lichen are amazing!
Thanks, Ellen! I esp. love the starry one on the upper left. Nature truly does captivate. 🙂
What a wonderful world is in this picture.
Thank you, Anne!
It is a wonderful small world. Is the golden stuff fungi or more lichen? So many textures…
Thank you, Barbara. A mix of lichen and orange fungi. 🙂
Truly handsome, and no two specimens seem to be alike.
Thank you, Judy. The reason for my endless fascination!
Nature never ceases to amaze me! Especially the colors…….
Lots of treasures on the ground after that windy day!
What a beautiful capture and interesting find…especially if one looks up about lichens.
Thank you, Alice. I’ve always liked lichen! 😉
Very pretty!
Thank you, Debra!
They are beautiful colors.
Thank you, always something to see in the forest!
Beauty in the details 💖🤗
Thank you, Susan. It is easy for me to lose myself when I see such things!
So much beautiful texture and movement, Eliza. I’d say it’s a painterly photo–nice capture!
Many thanks, Tina!
Pretty. The things we see when we stop and look…
Thanks, Dale. Oh, yes… anyone who walks with me must be willing to go slowly! 😉
Same!!
👍🏼 Maybe we’ll get a chance to walk together one day. 🙂
That would be fabulous! 🤗
Beautiful patterns!
Thank you, Laurie. What a find it was!
Eliza, you find the most interesting things to show us — thank you!
Thank you, Debbie, my pleasure!
Lichen can be beautiful! Nice colors and texture. ❤️
Thanks, John!
You’re welcome, Eliza. ❤️
Lichen has been busy on that branch! Not much space left 🙂
IKR? What an awesome colony. I often wonder what happens to them when they are on deadfall like this. Back to the earth?
It looks like a work of art.
Nature is my favorite artist! 🙂
Lichens are fascinating and these are beautiful
Thank you, Karina!
I love the texture and various colours of lichen, add a dusting of snow to top it off. Lovely photo!
Thank you very much, Belinda!
The combination of colors is especially pleasing. You do such a good job of photographing them. I found some moss or algae blooming today, but didn’t manage a single decent photo — even my macro lens had trouble with them!
Thank you, Linda, much appreciated!
Lovely layers. 😊
Thank you, Pepper!
Another fabulous discovery and you would be a wonderful walking partner enjoying to stop at all the small wonders!!🙂
Thank you, S! I’d love to share a walk with you and Harper. 🙂
Lichens and leaves and fungi… what a beautiful photo. 🤩💕
Thank you! 🙂
Lichen is one of the most miraculous things in nature.
Agreed, I love them! 🙂
A remarkable collection of textures and shapes. What a great capture Eliza!
Thank you, Cathy!
Lovely composition!
Thank you, Donna!
Plenty of patterns in this plant community.
True that! Thanks, Susan. 🙂
Cool, the fungi are turkey tails I believe. Or a look alike. And various lichens. Good find.
Thank you, I was quite mesmerized by it!
The one on the left is truly the “star” of the lichen review. 🙂
Thanks, Steve. That one was my favorite. 🙂
Nice find and fine photograph. I like the colors and composition!
Thank you, Denise, much appreciated!
Lovely lichens Eliza, beautifully shot.
Thanks much, Agnes!
