Moss & Flames

On a hike through the woods, my eyes were drawn to this scene. Sunlight streaming through the trees illuminated a patch of moss growing on a decaying log.

What caught my eye was the little, bright red, hair-like plants growing from the green moss bed. The way the light hit it, it reminded me of little flames.

I wish you could have been there because I don’t think the photo does it justice.  If you like to view a larger version (maybe that would help), just click on the photo.
