Lovely lichen

I love lichen (pronounced LIKE-en) and was happy to see this pretty piece of it on a wooden fencepost on a walk in the neighborhood.

I, too love lichen. I have peeled it off of trees to use in nature collages. Nice shot! Aloha

Beautiful photos – I myself love images like this – it is very similar in Queensland on fence posts.

Lichen is so delicate and pretty. Love how it shapes its own garden design on wood. Lovely photo.

Lovely bluish-green lichens, they look like very large examples of some I photographed for my blog. I like the way they make rounded shapes.
