Lichen

After a brief heavy downpour this morning, the sun came out for a minute or so. I saw the colors of this lichen, and had to get a close up picture. I was astounded at the beauty that I saw! I have not enhanced this photo -- I left that one up to Mother Nature.

Yellow in Winter

When the colors of the winter world are brown, black and green ... well, I couldn't resist trying to capture the rare glory of bright neon yellow.
