lichen the rain

Tina asked me for a green nature photo, I love the details of the very healthy lichen that grows on our fruit trees, apparently it is a sign of clean air and generous rainfall .

This must be a macro photo as I know the lichen is not large. Very pretty raindrops!

Wonderful green ,juiciness, dof

Very fresh and crisp, enhanced by the droplets. Makes me think of walking in the forest on a wet day.

[Walks @ 7]

Soft yet crisp too.

Mmmm....I can almost smell the foresty dampness.

[Yao RL]

I am worried that my trees are dying with it as it covered with them.

Nicely done. Plenty of the lichen on the trees around here too (and rain).

[Henri Russell]

It does look very healthy.

[Clare Gadsby]

kind of otherworldly somehow

[Gloria]

@yaorenliu i dont think it hurts the trees, they are not parasitic, some people remove it because they think it unsightly but i dont mind it.
