This is a fine colony of lichen, Roel. Their orange color really stands out from the rock and I thoroughly enjoy all of the little upward facing cones. I'm surprised that they grow is such a clearly defined oval. The stack looks good.

Roel..this is a beautiful image, and the larger version is fantastic. A new image, and nice to share images of your favorite macro subject. One does not come across too many lichen images.

I like the orange of the lichens against the gray of the granite. Great detail and overall sharpness, which this subject deserves. I guess the stone is strongly curved since you needed a stack of 20 images at f/11. My only comment is that it could use a bit more space and a bit more asymmetry. But I guess you aimed for symmetry... Like it anyway.

The large version is a must to really enjoy the textures and details of both the rock and the lichens, Roel. Great job on the stack as everything looks tack sharp.
