From under the sea?

No, but this lichen is unlike any I've seen around here. Those little tube looking extensions look like something you might find under the sea. Might check in out enlarged. Plungers or aliens??

Great macro shot, Milanie - wonderful detail and what a fascinating structure.

That is a really cool lichen. I have never seen one like it before with the suckers on it. Nice find and photo.

Love it in large, Milanie. I am going with aliens - more exciting.

Lovely image and great DOF. Looks really pretty large. Can't help you with ID.

Definitely looks alien. Very interesting shot.

I think mit's so cool that we shoot a lot of the same things. I love lichen and have taken lots of lichen pics. I think they are so interesting to look at. :0)
