Slowly dryingsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #photography5 years ago

With the hot weather coming and lack of rain all the pretty lichen is slowly drying up.
Just a few weeks ago they are all light green and tender to the touch. Last week as we went to get some fresh photos I found some pretty lichen cups, but they are all turning grey. I touched them to see if the texture changed - all dry and crispy.

Some mosses still try to grow spores, but it is all slowly looking like summer is just around the corner.
Crap...
