“Fungi constitute the most poorly understood and underappreciated kingdom of life on Earth.” — Michael Pollan
Back to Smuggler Cove and a treasure hunt for another chest of gems. This time it is the discovery of a cluster of Lilly pads floating in the shadows. Their greenish hue is further enhanced by the deep blue in the water and the black shadows from the surrounding trees that grow in the bog.
They almost shimmer in the reflected light and remind me that landscape photography can be a matter of discovery, rather than time of day.
For years I have wanted Beautyberry growing in my yard. But life, weather and insects conspired against me ... until now!
The colors... grape green to deep magenta! The songs of visiting birds! Last years bushes are now in full fruit and their spaced clusters of berries are ripening from green to pinky purple. Even the veins of the leaves have a purplish tint. I love the texture of the edge of the tiny leaf above the green berry cluster in this image. And the deep hazy purple tones in the background.

These small gills fungi grow in large clumps on stumps, dead roots or rotten trunks on broadleaved trees.

Cluster were a German musical duo consisting of Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius, formed in 1971 and associated with West Germany's krautrock and kosmische music scenes. Born from the earlier Berlin-based group Kluster, they relocated in 1971 into the countryside village of Forst, Lower Saxony, where they built a studio and collaborated with musicians such as Conny Plank, Brian Eno, and Michael Rother;
AllMusic described the group as "the most important and consistently underrated space rock unit of the '70s, and The Wire places the debut album in its "One Hundred Records That Set the World on Fire".

“You cannot eat a cluster of grapes at once, but it is very easy if you eat them one by one.”

A real gem in the night sky, this globular star cluster is M13 (13th entry in Charles Messier's catalogue of deep sky objects), the Great Hercules Cluster in the northern hemisphere sky. It is visible to the naked eye as a fuzzy patch of light under a clear, dark sky. Located about 25,000 light-years away from Earth, this globular cluster is made up of several hundred thousand stars and occupies a region of space that measures around 150 light-years in diameter. The stars of M13 are about 12 billion years old, an age comparable to the age of the Universe itself (about 13.7 billion years).
Look at it with a small telescope and the view is filled with countless sparkling stars. With larger telescopes and in deep exposures the tremendous number of stars becomes evident. One can only imagine the view from a hypothetical planet around a star close to the center of M13, a night sky filled with thousands of stars brighter than the brightest stars in our own night sky.
The faint 12th-magnitude galaxy NGC 6207 can be seen below and to the left of M13. It is a spiral galaxy located about 40 million light years away that appears by chance close to M13. Between M13 and NGC 6207 lies another smaller and fainter galaxy - IC 4617, which is more than 10 times farther away than NGC 6207. Can you spot it?
