One of the many unusual mushrooms at Cradle Mountain. Great place to explore forest and its hidden treasures.
This is my first attempt at bubbles. Not easy! Thanks to my husband for helping with the bubble blower!

Thanks to Pog's Pix and Mothfather for ID: Turkey tail aka Trametes virsicolor!
The damp eucalyptus bark looked great, the vibrant colours intensified by the afternoon light, however I thought it needed some post processing to make a more interesting photograph.... particularly to accentuate the luminosity and give it a porcelain quality..
I couldn't believe the shiny, transparency of these tiny leaves... only about 2 inches across. So young, so delicate, so open to capturing the sun. It's a tendril vine and already you can see the tiny tendrils forming and preparing to hook onto other plants to climb and grow.
Woody, climbing vine with yellow, funnel-shaped flowers that open in sunlight and close when cloudy or dark. Mature seedpods look like brown, wooden rose. Morning-glory family introduced as an ornamental. Continues to spread by people as ornamental and through floral arrangements. A fast-growing, aggressive vine that chokes and smothers plants. Seeds, viable for years, are invasive in Florida. Wood Roses are frequently used in dried flower arrangements. This practice has led to further seeding and invasion.

I'd been looking at the patterns on these windows for some weeks while teaching an evening class. I finally got a chance to photograph them. (066)
The interesting thing about this specimen is that if you shine light through the crystals edgewise, their color is a deep amber.

Honesty seed-pods. I think it's called honesty because it's transparent. People seem to be quite keen on this: it's just climbed to the top of my interestingness ladder, so thanks everyone!
It was a breezy day so I can't believe that this turned out so well - nature in close up is so beautiful and I sometimes don't think we appreciate just how much beauty there is right under our noses
