Wet bench with lichen

It was raining a lot here yesterday. But at one point the sun broke through and there were lots of beads of rain on the trees sparkling in the sunlight.

I went out to try to capture pictures of them.

But my photography skills weren’t up to it, I just couldn’t get a shot that worked.

Then I saw the lichen on the bench and the mixture of colours and textures appealed.

I’ll have to practice the sparkling water drop shots though
