i got a new camera for my moss photos, absolutely love all the macro details it shows! 🥹 #moss #macro #nature

A delicate, skeletal leaf with intricate vein patterns rests on a lush bed of bright green moss. The leaf appears fragile and almost transparent, contrasting with the dense, textured surface of the moss underneath.

This deer is missing the best part of the whole scene: Moss! #nature #moss #forest #japan #nara

A moss-covered stone lantern stands in a forest, its top blanketed in vibrant green moss that cascades over the edges like a miniature landscape. The weathered stone has soft, natural textures, contrasting with the bright greenery. At the base of the lantern, a deer with light brown fur and perked ears curiously sniffs the stone, seemingly oblivious to the lush moss above. The ground is covered in damp earth, fallen leaves, and pine needles, completing the serene woodland atmosphere.

ちいのこまいぬ — This 🦁🐶 statue has withstood the test of time and is now overgrown with lichen and moss. #moss #lichen #fungifriends #japan #nara

A close-up of an aged Komainu (lion-dog guardian statue) covered in green lichen, standing in an outdoor setting surrounded by tall trees. The statue's stone surface is weathered, with patches of lichen and moss growing across its face. Notably, the lichen has spread heavily around its eyes, creating a striking visual effect. The statue's mouth is slightly open, revealing its carved teeth, while the background of misty trees adds depth to the scene.

i really felt the urge to step on the soft moss floor, but decided to stare in awe instead. #moss #forest #nature

A serene forest scene with tall, evenly spaced trees standing over a lush, moss-covered floor. The vibrant green moss blankets the ground, creating a soft, cushion-like appearance, with scattered twigs and small plants adding texture. Sunlight filters through the trees, casting a gentle glow and highlighting the natural beauty of the woodland.

Cobblestone streets aren't just charming- they're tiny ecosystems bursting with life! 💚 #moss #nature #macro

A close-up of a cobblestone path with vibrant green moss growing between the stones. A tiny white-flowered plant emerges from the moss, adding a delicate touch of life. The rough texture of the stones contrasts with the softness of the greenery, highlighting nature’s ability to thrive in unexpected places.

🍀 pause, breathe, and let the moss remind you to slow down. 💚 #mossmonday #moss #nature #macro #forest

A close-up of vibrant green moss with dewdrops clinging to delicate stems. A reddish-purple grass blade contrasts with the lush greenery, while clover leaves add texture. The scene feels fresh and damp, shot in the early morning.

Ok, this is the last of the 'new app better fill up my feed so people are interested' post rampage 😂 This is just your ordinary north american raccoon in an extraordinary location & pose. He ran up a tree after some rain and watched me from beyond the mossy branches. Highlight moment!
