Was exploring the Consolation lakes near Lake Louise and was amazed by the patterns and subtle colors of the lichens. I had hiked to the far end of the lakes and had the place to my self until close to lunch time when I was leaving. I end up here instead of the famous Moraine lake as there was almost no solitude to be found. For all the mountains surrounding me at the time, I chose this as one of my favorites.
Is this a composite: No
What a great mosaic. Lichen has been my obsession this year, albeit on a much closer scale. I like how you’ve put this together. It’s hard with seemingly unending scenes like this. Terrific textures an colors. Lichens are amazing.
That is a heck of a lichen patch.
I would be curious to hear what you have to say about the work of other photographers here at NPN.
Bryan, this is an outstanding patch of lichen in their multiple colors with just a few hints of rock showing. Well seen.
These are mostly map lichens. You’ve nailed it, in focus across the range, and nice color.
Beautiful, Bryan. You found an excellent patch of lichen and photographed it beautifully.
I really enjoy images such as this and find it fun to just look at them and explore all of the details. Beautiful work!
