We are experiencing a particularly hot summer this year. No wonder this Elkhorn Fern's outer fronds are dried and discolored.

 

Elkhorn ferns (also called Staghorn ferns) are ‘epiphyte’, meaning that they grow on tree branches and trunks naturally. They can grow fairly large, although they require at least 10 years to achieve their maximum size.

 

These plants make two types of fronds. The shield, or sterile fronds, wrap around the tree or rock on which the plant is growing. These shields usually form a basket which collects debris, providing a medium for root growth, and aiding in moisture collection and retention. The fertile, or normal fronds, grow out from the bud, and the spores are borne on these. Some species make fertile fronds much like the antler of a deer. Others are nearly round, or wedge shaped.

Macro Monday theme - Unusual Pattern

 

I used several different subjects for this theme and I decided on this one to post! It was a challenging theme for me. This is a flat cheese grater on a colorful label.

 

Happy Macro Monday!

Playing in the mud, water, and salt at Sunset is a favorite pastime for me. This was shot with my wide-angle to capture more of the scene and less emphasis on the mountains

Taken on a morning walk on the beach. A beautifully coloured piece of seaweed had washed up. It was like a piece of art waiting to be seen

The edge of the stream had so many frozen patterns, and so much variety, making me a happy photographer. Lots of photos to work on!

Les algorithmes sont-ils responsables de la solitude grandissante qui rampe dans nos villes et nos campagnes ?

 

Tout dépend de ce qu'on entend par "algorithmes", bien sûr.

En tout cas, tandis que l'informatisation agressive des services publics élargit la fracture sociale qui sépare les plus pauvres de ceux qui ne sont pas suspects par défaut de manque de mérite, la solitude, elle, se voit, s'entend, se ressent, se vit... Au milieu des motifs pavés.
