Resurrection Engine

“Moss grows where nothing else can grow. It grows on bricks. It grows on tree bark and roofing slate. It grows in the Arctic Circle and in the balmiest tropics; it also grows on the fur of sloths, on the backs of snails, on decaying human bones. ... It is a resurrection engine. A single clump of mosses can lie dormant and dry for forty years at a stretch, and then vault back again into life with a mere soaking of water.”

-Elizabeth Gilbert
It really is a fascinating plant- it always looks like a fairy forest to me. Nice shot!

Gives the humble moss a whole new dimension. Like the this chunk of moss is almost heart shaped too.

Love moss and how it manages to grow in the most inaccessible places. Lovely capture

This photo is a good example on how it can grow almost anywhere. Had to research how moss gets its nutrients, since the rock doesn't especially look like a nutrient rich environment. The answer - the air.
