The photograph shows a double tree trunk that has been dead for a long time. The bark has disappeared from the lower part, revealing light brown wood marked by twisted tunnels made by beetle larvae. Higher up, the bark is peeling off in sheets and is a darker brown color. The trunk branches into two, which grew close together. The photo is taken from the bottom up so that the double trunk can be seen all the way to the tips where there are still remnants of branches. Around it, you can see the branches of other trees and the sky, which is a rich blue color.

Dead trees are a common feature of the landscape here. Some have been destroyed by age, some by fungal diseases (ash trees). Some are uprooted by the wind or felled by beavers. Trees regularly fall into the meandering river, which erodes the banks. Dead […]

A photograph of a forest where trees protrude from the water, and a yellow-red setting sun can be seen low between the trees. The trees have wide root bases, old branches lie in the water, and grass protrudes from it. The sky betwen tree is bright, but it is clear that the light is fading because the sun is low.

Yesterday's sunset in the forest, where melting snow left old riverbeds of extinct meandering streams full of cold water. The trees are still bare, but snowdrops already cover the ground, and clusters of flowers hang from the branches of hazel trees […]

The massive tree trunk is photographed from below, looking up toward the sky. It is covered with green moss, which is in focus at the bottom of the image, while the trunk is blurred toward the top. Leafless branches are visible at the top of the image, quite blurred. The sky around them is filled with white clouds.

The mighty oak is my favorite tree. Its trunk is slanted, making it more accessible to rain, and so it has become overgrown with moss up to a height of several meters. Several species of moss and other small plants grow here. Unfortunately, even though this […]

The macro photograph shows a number of moss shoots in green and golden green colors. The shoots are cylindrical in shape, formed by a number of pointed leaves that overlap each other, and the leaves are twisted at the ends. The Latin name of the moss, cupressiforme, refers to its similarity to cypress twigs.

I used a flash to illuminate the transparent tails of Hypnum cupressiforme moss, wet from the rain, while taking photos. There isn't much light on a rainy day. That day, I found more species of moss than I expected in a small area of the forest. It paid off […]

In the macro photograph, there is an area of bright green moss on the right. Its leaves are very thin and pointed, sticking up next to each other, so that the area looks like a green fur coat or lawn. Brown stems with elongated sacs at the ends protrude from the green area. Some of them have round, transparent drops of water on them. The background of the photograph on the right is a brownish-white blurred color.

The photo shows a group of mushrooms growing from a slanted tree trunk, from dead wood without bark. The mushrooms have distinctive orange caps, their stems are brownish-black, and they grow from a single spot. They are curved into an arch so that the mushroom caps are roughly horizontal.

Velvet foot mushrooms, Flammulina velutipes, grow even in winter. They are good in soup, but so small that they are not worth picking and carrying home.

The macro photograph shows several fruiting bodies of a white fungus growing from a common base, but without stems. They grow from light-colored wood lying horizontally. Their caps are white and covered with white hairy fur. The ones closest to the camera show a pink underside of the caps with massive ridges.

Schizophyllum commune is a common fungus that grows on dead wood. It grows even in winter and is covered with a white fur. I found some fallen tree trunks that had been cut down by beavers. They were so overgrown with this fungus and tiny fruiting bodies that […]

The photo shows the shore of a body of water, covered with fallen leaves, with water and trees in the background. Three trees stand at the water's edge, and a path leads from the observer between these trees directly into the water. The trees form a kind of gateway through which the path passes into the water. One tree on the right, two on the left. All the trees are gnawed deep below the bark at the base, and light wood shines from these gnawed parts, while the bark of the trees is dark and brown.

The photo shows a tree trunk with a piece bitten off above the ground. There is a body of water in the background. The trunk has been gnawed into a rounded conical shape, ending at the top with a point from which several splinters protrude. The upper part of the cone is light in color and shows growth rings. The lower part of the trunk is dark brown. The trunk is sprinkled with light-colored pieces of wood.

Today I visited my neighbors. I rarely see them, and even then it's usually from a boat on the river. They have a different rhythm of life, being more active at night. And they don't like people. However in their territory I saw two castles protecting their […]

The entire surface of the macro image is covered with green moss leaves, with a brown twig lying across it. In the center of the image is a moss leaf, slightly serrated around the edges like the others, but this one is covered with water. It glistens in the reflection of the light, and you can see how thin it is, so it is translucent.

I can never resist photographing translucent moss leaves. Here is probably Mnium marginatum, covered with water after rain. That's how it is—I see a shiny miniature drop of water in the moss when I walk through the forest. I find it on the display when I use […]

The rest of the photograph shows other blurred purple flowers and green vegetation.

The tiny Lamium maculatum shines with the color of its flowers in the autumn undergrowth of the floodplain forest. Only when magnified can you see how hairy they are.

When I walk through the floodplain forest and my eyes search for small objects, I sometimes have to switch to "just walking" mode, when my eyes focus on larger things such as the path and trees. I switch modes like this, and thanks to that I can see even very […]

The macro photograph shows a greatly enlarged section of tree bark. It has a deep texture and dark color. In places, tufts of green moss grow on it. Roughly halfway up the photograph, a tiny white mushroom grows out of the vertical bark, with a stem that curves upward and a white cap. The white mushroom contrasts with the dark background.

Rád fotím miniaturní houby rostoucí ze dřeva stromů. Prostě proto, že jsou tak maličké. Málokdo si jich všimne. Moje kamera však má problém s bílou barvou - vše co je bílé vykreslí bez detailů jako bílou plochu. Nyní jsem našel nastavení které to eliminuje - […]

After heavy rains, I wander through the forest and photograph miniature mushrooms. Helmet mushrooms grow on tree bark and are white or brown, or white with specks—Frosty bonnet. They need moisture for their fruiting bodies to appear. This is a flat landscape […]

The macro photograph shows a spider against a background of sanded wood. The background shows stripes of dark and light wood in dark and light brown colors. It is possible to deduce its size from this; even with its legs, it is only about one centimeter long. The spider is stretched across the entire frame because its front and rear legs, which are quite long, are stretched up and down - it is oriented vertically. Its legs are translucent like glass with only small black spots. Its body is elongated and covered with irregularly shaped green and gold spots with only a small gap between them, mostly filled with black color, so it looks like a jewel. Eight small black eyes are clearly visible on the front of its head.

Wild Cucumber, Echinocystis lobata, has been in Europe since about 1900, having been introduced from the Americas. After the seeds shoot out of the fruit at speeds of up to 40 km/h, the shell gradually degrades, leaving a net-like lantern with thorns. It […]

The macro photograph shows several milky white mushrooms growing from the vertical surface of brown and green dead wood. The mushrooms have stems and caps, and their white color is slightly translucent, giving them a slightly green tint as they absorb the green color of the surrounding forest. The background is blurred with vague shapes of brown and light colors.

I took pictures of the tiny mushrooms last month. Sometimes I have more good photos, and I don't want to overcrowd the feed. It's probably Hemimicena lactea. I like to take pictures of these sponges in the wet woods best - because they are so tiny that if it […]

You'll never see this moss again. It's too small. On the trunk of a tree lying on the ground in a damp forest, it looks like a fine green coating, like green paint on wood. It wasn't until I was magnified that I saw its texture, the delicate green leaves […]

One little frog for today. There were a lot of them on the way around the river. They're so small and so well camouflaged that I have trouble seeing them if they're still. And this one could rival the famous moss frogs for invisibility.
