lichen and 'rust'

on the gate of the 12th century church at Mottisfont

That's an excellent shot - lichen as well as rust is always good! And such a nice little glimpse of the church etc in the background.

@tishpics
Thank you. This was very lucky as I had given up on 'rust'. We went to Mottisfont Abbey and walking around the grounds I spotted the church through the trees. Ray said it was a short walk to get to it - and there was my shot!

@pyrrhula

I was a bit surprised to find lichen growing on 'inanimate' (so to speak) wood.
I understand it on trees but.............
