Decided to get the Mossy Monday post up tonight. Had several photos instead of the usual 2. The pic above was altered & "messed around" with on Picnik. Fun site, but I thought I had lost this photo...thrilled when it popped up, right where it should be. {Click to enlarge & check out the cute little tree frog on the column!}
So many layers of moss on this...can you tell what it's growing on?
It's on the crossed trunks of 2 Saw Palmettos in the front yard. They're very rough, & the moss has really covered them this year.
This looks like the surface of another planet...but it's not.. :o} Do you see the cool little fern on the left?
It's the trunk of another Saw Palmetto. This one grew so long & heavy, Joe had to prop it up...with a recycled galvanized pipe. They flower in the spring & then get berries, which folks around here still harvest for $. They use the berries for medicinal purposes...but you gotta pick a LOT of berries to make a buck. Enjoy the greenery, & have a great week. *elaine*
Love your pics, I never realized moss could look so beautiful! I'll be looking at it in a different light from now on. Thanks for sharing these with us, Have a great week.
Green is such a difficult color to capture and you have gone over the top with these photos. The brilliant shades of green shout. Absolutly lovely photos. Sea Witch
My blog is now 1 year old, and I think it's time for a new profile! I'm a 50 something transplanted New Englander, living in Central Florida with my husband of 34 years. Have 2 grown sons, & 1 perfect sweet 2 year old granddaughter. I love to go to yard sales, & thrift shops, and when the weather is cool, the flea market. Never go with anything specific in mind...love the thrill of the hunt! I collect WAY too many things; I'll blame that on the packrat gene from my mother! I like to craft, & garden, & scrapbook...and all those hobbies give me a good excuse for most of the weird things I drag home!! I'm an inconsistant blogger, at best, but sometimes day to day stuff just gets in the way of stuff I'd rather be doing. I hope you stop by & "visit"...leave a comment if you do! Peace *elaine*

Great pictures today! I love moss, and I loooove that birdbath too, and I'll have to try Picnik sometime!
Such beautiful mossy pictures....I love moss and even have fake stuff that I couldn't resist buying to fill the house with.
