    My memory's not as sharp as it used to be.

    Great colour and texture Isac. It has certainly seen better days. That is some impressive lichen on the windscreen.

      Thanks Alan. I took these in Toodyay during a walk in the bush. Apparantly 6–8% of the Earth's land surface is covered by lichens and there are about 20,000 known species. They look like a plant but they are just basically microorganisms. Interesting planet we live upon

      From what I’ve read they are a combination of fungi and algae

      I was generalising about the micro stuff but you are correct. They can mix with other microorganisms and expand to make their existence continue and keep growing. Strange stuff indeed.

    G'day Mate

    +1 with Alan's thoughts
    ps- must be cold where you are #3 as those headlights sure do stand out

      Cheers Phil. Oh you are aweful, but I like it!
      Toodyay is inland a bit - 80+ kms N-E of my home in Wattle Grove and it gets pretty nippy in winter.
      I placed new lights in it and it looked a bit weird.
