Description


I was down in Marblehead, Massachusetts, looking for an old lighthouse. Found this very pretty lichen on the granite rocks, just a few feet above the high water mark. Thus the title. Foggy morning so the color doesn’t look as bright orange as I saw it. Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated. Dana

Excellent shot of the orangy lichen, that resembles a square sponge after many uses, Dana.

This is quite wonderful. For me, it resembles insulation of some sort...probably that polyurithane kind of stuff, only it's organic and alive, which also makes me think of the sort of stuff we'd eventually find on other planets; needless to say this is quite interesting for me, especially since I have a fondness for lichens and similar plants, despite their rather woeful absence in my gallery. At any rate, I can come here and look at brilliant beauties like this. And this is quite perfectly detailed. Great shot!

I like this one very much, with the effect the lichen conveys on the bark of this tree...like an abstract painting! Super capture !

I thought the colour was quite vivid, so don't know what you saw. Great find, hope you found the lighthouse!!!!
