Been trying to submit these but the last set of lichen photos I took I have been having errors uploading. The recent lichen post reminded me to do this. I usually post my photos to [email protected]

Went rock hounding up in the hills by a creek and found this one. There was snow on the ground still but it was wet and rainy. Love the gradient on this one.

I misidentified this as a shield lichen, it is actually Menegazzia Terabrata

I am doing a lot of work right now that requires day and year durations and I have to define those myself. I wonder why they didn't include those in the time package.

This lichen is fruiting, with cup like, pancake colored apothecia.

I have no photography background and I'm just using my S21 ultra camera. I found this one hard to get the lighting right. I also wish I had gotten a bit more of the left side of the tree in frame.

This was taken at the south end of Camano Island, Washington, around dusk. The tree is on the cliff about 60 feet above the rocky beach.

It feels like there is always one more little thing that you can get done before hopping off. But then that turns into 10 other little things you can do. And the next thing you know it's the next day and the sun is coming up.

This looked like a completely alien world from this perspective. I was captivated by these tenticles reaching out from the fungus powdered wood.

I'll share a few more in the comments.

I love the patterns that lichen leave behind on rocks.
