Survivors

Ivy and lichen on an old sandstone wall.

Good texture! And, it shows the cleverness of plant species to survive anywhere! Photographically I might have cropped it square to concentrate the focus.

Love that deep colour of the ivy with the green veining.

@marshwader you could be right about the square crop. I wasn’t very happy with any of the photos from this day, and was working in a hurry: the nought crossed my mind, but I got a bit hung up on having the ivy disappearing into the corner of the frame.

@boxplayer thanks - it was the veining on the ivy that caught my eye initially.
