I was looking out the window and saw all this moss on my Azalea bushes and decided to go take a Macro of it.. Then that led to the Twirl and then why not a Droste design in the PBAccelerator... I have taken pictures of just about everything in my yard and a lot of what's in my house and so now is play time...

With the Rain,comes the Moss.

Small flowers growing in moss by the road

 

Saw this while hiking on the Jewell Trail to Mt. Washington.

 

Edited in Photos and Snapseed, but pretty close to SOOC.

 

I’ve hiked extensively in that area and this was an unusual stand of moss covered trees, glowing quite brightly in what should have been fairly dark woodland.

Which side of the moss is on the tree?

 

Hypothetically, if I was walking next to the river (which is true), and if was lost (which is true, sort of), I should be able to tell which direction the moss is on the tree.

What do you do when the moss goes all the way around the trees? That is just as helpful as a spinning compass.

 

The Internet says, which it is always true, the moss grows on the North of the trees.

Except in the South hemisphere when the moss would be on the South side of the trees.

 

What about in the Equator?

Osprey migrate through Texas. This is the first one I've seen here, so it was an exciting experience. It was circling and diving to fish, but unsuccessful. It was too far from me to get any decent dives, but did fly over close once before heading out. My vantage point only allowed for a back lit image. Would have been better with front light.

Macro of some Moss starting to Grow.

I don't often do macro shots but just loved this moss hanging off a tree branch with water dripping off it. It's a bit noisy as I had to use a high ISO to use a fast shutter speed due to the moss fronds moving in the wind.

The story goes that long ago--maybe two or three hundred years ago--a newly wed couple came to Charleston, SC, to make their new home. Sadly, they chose a spot for their plantation that Indians had long used as hunting ground. The Indians were not violent sorts, as a rule, but they wanted to make their claim dramatic, and so they scalped the bride and flung her long curly hair up onto the branches of a live oak tree, which had the intended effect of frightening the young couple enough so that they promptly went elsewhere. What the Indians had not expected, however, was that the bride's long curly hair, once caught in the branches of the tree, would not only stay there but would also spread to other branches, other trees, and, in time, turn gray. Nowadays, when the moon is full, if you stand beneath one of these festooned trees and listen carefully, you can hear the soft moan of the bride, the same moan that escaped her lips in the moment she was deprived of her beautiful long hair, which never grew back as full and lush as it had been, so that the rest of her life, which was long and prosperous--for her husband dealt shrewdly in deerhides, tea, and, later, rice--she never appeared in public unless in a wig. It was a beautiful wig, made of human hair--in fact the hair of a Cherokee maiden who had impulsively traded it to an itinerant merchant for a pair of shoes with Queen Anne heels--and nobody was ever the wiser.

Viewers of my stream know that I go for meditation on Saturdays at Hakone Gardens, Saratoga, California. One morning when I arrived, the sun was shining on a moss covered oak tree.

 

I processed a balanced and paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures, merged them selectively, pulled the curves, and carefully adjusted the color balance.

Moss and barnacles inhabit these water-worn caves in this large log of driftwood found washed ashore on the Puget Sound's Elliot Bay beach in Myrtle Edwards Park at the north end of the downtown Seattle waterfront.

Taken at Langisjór (in Iceland). It was foggy but still the moss was so green.

Oh no! It is not a panorama! i think this place suits a square format type of photo - unfortunately i don't think i took one while i was here - way too many kids, flash flooding the other time, and bad light the other.
