Mindfulness poem for the #lichenology #phycology #mycology fans. #Bryology fans can likely relate too.

On Peace by Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer

"There is so much I cannot do
to help the world,
but this—
let me learn to metabolize
silence as the alga in lichen
metabolizes light."

A nice thing about owning an old Land Rover is that in the spring in comes into bloom.

A close-up of the bottom of a window in an old blue Land Rover. There is moss growing in the window channel and there are small green flowers, or whatever it is that moss has, sticking up out of the moss and catching the sunlight. Some trees and houses are very fuzzily visible in the background.

For #mosstodon, here is a pattern of moss growing on a tree trunk in the Wahiawa Botanical Garden on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. Made from an exposure stack using Hugin, then processing the HDR image in Luminance HDR.

A semi-circular pattern of green moss that appears to be growing in lines that someone apparently cut into the bark of a tree. The bark is a mix of brown, blue-gray and reddish brown patches. The out-of-focus background is green leaves growing on the sides of the hill behind the tree.

A close-up of moss, with a few tendrils at the bottom left and two in the centre in focus; the central-most tendril has a tiny drop of water bejewelling it, against a background of blurred green.

Presented: the end result of a lot of work. This is what my desk looks like when I finish something.
Four of these lights have already left the studio (well, the living room) and are now with their new owners. I feel very lucky to have so many people following and supporting me. Maybe one day I'll have an actual studio, and maybe I will also have learned to clean it by then!

A cluttered wooden workspace filled with various crafting materials and tools. In the center, several small handmade mossy landscapes with embedded LED lights glow softly. Two glass domes sit nearby, along with a bottle of glue, a spool of soldering wire, a pair of scissors, and a set of precision screwdrivers. To the right, a group of Sylvanian Families rabbit figures is gathered next to small plastic containers. A large bag of green wool and embroidery supplies, including a hoop, are stacked in the background. Bottles and wooden cylindrical objects are also present, along with scattered crafting supplies.

Some quick shots of an alien landscape that has been long overdue for a focus stack. Needs just the right amount of overcast sky to look good, though.

Cool looking cup lichen interspersed with moss on a tree bark.

Different angle (from above): Looks Like a tiny otherworldy settlement of umbrella trees

Mein #12x12 Beitrag für Februar kommt leider erst jetzt, war Anfang März unterwegs und habe den Film erst hinterher eingeschickt. Februar war kalt und ich hab mich auf Natur beschränkt, bis auf die Bank. Bisschen #mosstodon ist auch dabei :)

12x12 Kollage mit den vier folgenden Bildern als 2x2, dazwischen nur der Text

Bank vor winterlich blattlosem, sonnigen Wald

Ausgeblühte aber schöne Blüten im Garten

A single pale thin mushroom, its cap tattered by hard weather, protrudes from the mossy and jagged exposed wood of a shattered old tree stump. It almost seems like a climber on a steep mountain nearing the peak.

Red-fruited Pixie Cup lichen (Cladonia pleurota) and moss at eye level in a landscape of lichens and mosses

A close-up of light grey-green, upright, goblet-shaped lichen structures (podetia) in a field of green and brown haircap moss.
The surface of the podetia, which are deeply open at the top, looks floury, with tiny red and black fruiting bodies (apothecia and pycnidia) growing at their edges.
Two large, thin podetia of another lichen and further moss grow in the blurred background.

not sure if it counts as #FensterFreitag or not?

a thick wall of moss offers a square window view of what I believe is a fragmented lichen-covered rock beneath

It's a bright sunny day!

In the foreground there is the top of an old wall with moss and some small herbaceous plants on it. In the background, down in the valley, with a soft focus is a town.

Shadowy scenes in remote marshes and darkest forest, draped with lichen, dappled with fungus, and completely overrun with moss. Are you being stalked by a swamp creature or a bog witch?

No. It's just #mosstodon.

Although, come to think of it, a bog witch isn't out of the question.

Welcome... to Fedi Vale.
