Explorations Of The Forest Floor
Last fall, I went on a day trip with the intention of doing macro photography of mushrooms. The trip didn’t quite go as expected as I didn’t find many mushrooms I wanted to shoot. I did however, find so much inspiration that I had to come back again for more. What started as idle curiosity soon became my main point of focus as I began to make my explorations of the forest floor. What I love about this series is the colours, shapes, textures, and patterns. I like the blending of familiar and unfamiliar. Some of them have an otherworldly feel.
Featured below are primarily lichens and mosses that I found as part of my explorations of the forest floor.
I won’t even try to identify the mushrooms, but some of the plants included are:
British Soldier Lichen
Pixie Cup Lichen
Trumpet Lichen
Sphagnum Moss
Reindeer Lichen
