English: Lichen

Lichens are symbiotic associations of a fungus (the mycobiont) with a photosynthetic partner (the photobiont also known as the phycobiont) that can produce food for the lichen from sunlight. The photobiont is usually either green alga or cyanobacterium. A few lichens are known to contain yellow-green algae or, in one case, a brown alga. Some lichens contain both green algae and cyanobacteria as photobionts; in these cases, the cyanobacteria symbiont component may specialize in fixing atmospheric nitrogen for metabolic use.

I did not want to miss the friday theme fun.
A bit sick now back to bed.

Superb image Pim!
The colours and textures are real vivid, almost 3D in perspective.

Great entry for the theme.

This is the best, most artistic representation of lichen I have ever seen, Pim!
I would hang this one on my living room wall or in my entryway with great pride!

Fine abstract and natural indeed. I also thought at the beginning to post a brother picture to this one, but then I saw your post and looked to something else.
Very good control of the DOF here.

Hi Pim

Very love capture of this unusual plant color and texture, blending well into the surrounding.

Bright color and texture. Well done.

TFS, bill

Hà, Pim! Géén HPP ditmaal en toch ziet ie er zo uit ;o). Mijn eerste idee was dat je tot op de bodem van een aquarium "gedoken" was. Niet, dus.
Prachtige opname, vooral qua kleur en qua scherptediepte. Voorgrond én achtergrond onscherp, zodat ons oog als vanzelf hoofd- van bijzaak onderscheidt. Knap werk!
Groeten & beterschap gewenst,
Erik
