Vau Petre, ove gljive su nevjerojatne - zelene su !!!! Mislim da ranije nisam vidio zelene, odlična fotografija i formiranja korijena (sada nestalog) drveta.

What a lovely biotope, its own little world.

What an excellent find and a beautiful capture, Petar! Happy Photography Day to you!

Now you are talking my loves. trees, moss, fungus. While it's always sad to me when a tree is cut down, this photo shows the continuing world in the face of change.

Love how the mossy roots make the tree seem alive like a creature.

Is this near your home? Did you know of it and go take the photo specifically, or was it a happy find on a walk?

Hi, Laura! I agree with you when it comes to destroying the environment. There is a lot of that in our country, especially by destroying forests, which are our great wealth.

Going out into nature is my greatest pleasure and it is not difficult for me to cross ten kilometers a day and spend the whole day in the woods and in the fields.Specifically, this location is about 10 km away from my house.That day I was looking for a medicinal plant Lycopodium clavatum, which in our country is called "a wormhole". By the way, I am a passionate collector of medicinal herbs and mushrooms.

One of the things I'm really enjoying about the World Photography Day event besides the photos themselves is getting to know our community better. I love to hear that you were looking for a medicinal plant (did you find it?) and that you collect medicinal herbs and mushrooms. I definitely am a proponant of using herbs for health. I'm inclined to think that plants from where one grows up are the most helpful - but I can be desuaded by someone more knowledgable than me.

From bits I've read it appears that some mushrooms are helping with untreatable anxieties/depressions.

Hopefully you sometimes eat the mushrooms just for a regular meal - they are so yummy!

The plant I was looking for (in English it is called, among other things, wolf's-foot clubmoss or running clubmoss) is very rare and is threatened with extinction because it cannot adapt to changes in the environment. I was lucky so I only found it in one place of 2 m2. Promotes the excretion of uric acid, which is why it is useful in gout and rheumatic diseases.

As for mushrooms, we definitely use them in our feeding. However, due to the drought this year, there were none.

All fascinating.
