If theses last shot have been taken today, I'll be more than green with envy!!

Life always looks special when you look close enough - and you do.

Keep well!

These are some that I took in a disused quarry last spring... Hopefully I will be back there in a week or two to take some more.

Tom: What beauties, the lichen can really put on a show.

Tom, we seem to be in the same boat. My old ticker decided to strike. It did not appreciate extreme heat for over a week so yours truly is in totter mode with water on the brain and evrywhere else.
Adorable mosses and lichens, wish I had a macro too.

Lovely shots, Tom. I really like the first two: the little red tongue on the first is so hopeful beside its brown companions, and the moss getting ready to send out seed (or whatever moss does, I don't know the proper term!) pleases me. Spring will be here, I just need patience to wait for it!

How beautiful Tom. Isn't it simply amazing what beauty there is in these lichens and to think that most times we simply trample them underfoot.

If you get a chance pop over to see my camera critter, it reminds me of the both of us :)

My Dear Tom,
I was so pleasantly surprised to see your comment on my blogs today. So glad you enjoyed my roses and little sleeping Lily. I don't know how I existed before I was a Grandma. :)
I was just emailing a friend today about closeup shots. I'd love a macro lens someday to get really close.
I love these shots! The new sprouts on the moss is my favorite.
Please take good care of yourself and do tell Jane hello.
Many hugs to you both.
