Beautiful pictures of an unusual place. One wonders what geological phenomenon took place to leave such beauty behind.

When I shot this lichen hanging on the end of a branch I had a vague idea what I wanted to do with it, but had no idea how. Lightroom made it a fairly simple operation.
CC please.
CC please.
Is this Lichen or a moss?

Wow, only one color or seemingly type of Lichen. Here in Calif. we will have patches of a bunches of different colors and textures of Lichens all over the same rock together; green, yellow, orange, cyan, smooth, scaly, etc. Though I have not investigates how many species are actually present at any one time. But the display can look like abstract psychedelic art.
Do a series of Lichens--an inexhaustible source of photos

The farmer that built the old fences on our horse pasture used railroad ties for corners. This one has lichen growing on it and a bunch of old nails where a fence rail was formerly attached. Cool textures I thought.

when you go into the high country take a series of lichen on the rocks--an inexhaustible source of photos

Thank you for the wonderful comment. I try hard to get sharp photos!
Next trip into the high country take some closeups of the rocks and Lichen.
It would make an unusual series of an almost infinite subjects.

And how about giving change at the register without the register spelling it out? 
I watched a teenage checkout girl break down and cry when the customer gave her $5.12 when the bill was $1.12 expecting $4 in change. She panicked over the math when the cash register did not tell her how much.

“Big Bang Theory”
The Original Universe, immediately after the Big Bang, was unbelievably hot at a ferocious temperature of a trillion degrees. As it expanded it cooled. Matter and energy cohabited as a thick soup with no light (photons). At approximately 300,000 years old the temperature dropped to 5000 degrees. Atoms had not even formed, only energy, so there was no matter in existence in the beginning. This would make the “stony meteorite” much younger than the Big Bang.

I agree, as a math major (1956) I watch my own grandkids, they can't tell the time without looking on their cellphones! The 'New Math'? Good Lord, I don't see how they think this is better than the traditional??
Try teaching them Military time based on a 24 hour clock.

This photo was through my vintage Mono eyepiece Compound student microscope. It is from a 14.516-gram slice of a (possible LL3) Stony Meteorite under classification by the Meteoritical Society Nomenclature Committee for publication in the Meteoritical Bulletin.
Chondrules formed from the Big Bang and are said to be 4564.7billion years old, making them older than the earth, having arrived on Earth in meteorites.
