Moss, lichen and dry pine needles creating a miniature landscape. I may have posted this photo before.
I'm sorry I haven't been keeping an eye on my Forest Floor feed for posts that don't belong. I've now added a bunch of negative hashtags, removed mycology from the positives since that's the one causing the most trouble, and blocked a couple of users.

Mirrored nature photograph creating a symmetrical pattern from red flower petals, green leaves, and twigs on a forest floor, forming a mandala-like design.
Nature dropped the pieces.
I just mirrored the moment.
Sometimes the forest hides patterns in plain sight. 🌿

Very close up of a wild Calypso Orchid, with forest in the background. It’s purple, red & white.

Texture overload! So many fun, green textures to explore along the East Bank Trail. Poza, Melba, and Cloris are loving all the moss, ferns, and leafy surprises!

Some banded grey bedrock where some bands have eroded more than the others, with a thin layer of dense moss growing mostly in the eroded bands. The bands go diagonally across the photo. Some dry pine needles lay scattered on the moss. The rock is illuminated by sunlight with something (trees probably) casting shadows over the upper right and lower left corners of the picture.
Nutella is trending on Bluesky, and all I can think is "everyone knows Nutella contains palm oil, right?"
My brain just won't shut up about these things, but I'm trying not to nag. Some days it's hard though.
Here's some slightly mossy rock for #MossMonday

Recently, I’ve found myself taking loads of photos of beach trees. There’s a new video coming out tomorrow evening with this very image, so keep an eye out on YouTube for Forest Frame: Paul Cunningham.

A high-contrast, vertical black and white photograph looking through a dense, tangled thicket of trees. In the foreground, dark, gnarled branches frame the shot, leading the eye toward a lighter, sun-dappled clearing in the centre distance. The scene is filled with a complex web of thin vines, hanging moss, and textured bark. The ground is covered in fallen leaves and low-growing ferns. The mood is mysterious, atmospheric, and deeply immersive, like a secret path in an ancient forest.

A vertical, eye-level photograph of a dense woodland. Slender, pale-barked silver birch trees rise from a forest floor covered in large, rounded boulders. Every rock and the base of every tree is swathed in thick, vibrant green moss, creating a textured, undulating carpet. Dead brown leaves are scattered amongst the green. The lighting is soft and diffused, highlighting the peeling textures of the bark and the deep emerald hues of the moss, evoking a peaceful and mystical atmosphere.
The number of boulders in Oak Glen, Co. Wicklow always amazes me. It's a blockfield, made in the post-glacial period when freeze-thaw cycles shattered the stone from within.

A mass of golden brown leaves of bracken (Pteridium aquilinum)
From the more recent archives (last year): some dry bracken.

A vertical close-up of a textured tree trunk covered in vibrant green moss and dozens of pale, fan-shaped bracket fungi. The fungi grow in overlapping tiers, showing concentric rings of cream and tan. In the soft-focus background, a stream flows over rocks, captured with a long exposure that makes the water look like a silky white veil. The lighting is cool and diffused, creating a serene, damp, and earthy atmosphere typical of an Irish woodland.

A vertical, atmospheric shot taken from a low angle looking up into a dense thicket of trees. Dark, silhouetted branches and moss-covered trunks dominate the foreground, while a brilliant, sharp sunburst pokes through a gap in the upper limbs, creating long light rays. The background is a hazy, golden web of fine, leafless twigs illuminated by the sun. The overall mood is serene, crisp, and ethereal, highlighting the contrast between deep shadows and bright winter light.

A small ridge in a forest, with the ground covered completely in vinca (can't say if it's V. minor or V. major). The plant has green glossy leaves forming a dense carpet. A narrow path winds through the vegetation. The surrounding trees in the photo are mostly low and deciduous.
Down at the lake there's a peninsula that once was full of small summer cottages. Most of them have been torn down decades ago, and the forest is taking back the abandoned lots. The vinca (not native to Sweden) won't give up easily though.

A lush, atmospheric forest scene captured from a low angle. In the foreground, large boulders are completely draped in thick, velvety green moss, illuminated by bright patches of golden sunlight. A heavy, moss-covered tree limb curves gracefully across the top left, framing the view. In the background, a dense stand of dark coniferous trees creates a sense of depth, with light filtering through the needles to create a high-contrast, ethereal "fairytale" mood.

A low-angle shot looking up through a dense thicket of slender, leafless deciduous trees toward a brilliant, cloudless blue sky. In the foreground, large, rounded boulders are heavily carpeted in thick, vibrant lime-green moss, appearing soft and textured. The sunlight hits the white and silver bark of the trees, creating a sharp contrast against the deep azure of the sky. The overall mood is fresh, peaceful, and evocative of an early spring morning in a temperate forest.

A tiny flower on the forest floor, black and white
I love the soft little hairs on the stem of this tiny flower. 🥹 It's a beautiful life.

A detailed macro photograph of a cluster of fan-shaped orange mushrooms growing in layers from a decaying, mossy tree log. The mushrooms have fuzzy, pale white upper surfaces and vibrant, deep orange gills underneath. Soft, dappled sunlight filters through a blurred green forest background, creating a warm and earthy atmosphere. The focus is sharp on the intricate textures of the fungal gills in the foreground.

Image is of greenery on the forest floor near Callander, Scotland. Deep greens mix with paler, teal colour, and interspersed with the brown of dead leaves.

Close-up macro shot of a small brown mushroom growing from bright green moss, its cap covered in hundreds of fine white filaments radiating outward, each tipped with a tiny dark spore capsule of the parasitic fungus Spinellus fusiger.
Spinellus fusiger turns its host into a spore cannon and I think that's beautiful.

A wide-angle photograph of a woodland floor covered in a dense carpet of Siberian Squill. The flowers are a bright, nodding electric blue, contrasting with a few yellow daffodils on the left. Tall, thin trees with textured grey and brown bark rise from the flowers, with bright sunlight glowing through the branches from the top left. The scene is bright, airy, and full of the fresh, cool tones of an Irish spring morning.

A close-up, side-profile shot of a textured tree trunk with reddish-brown, peeling bark. Numerous small, fan-shaped bracket fungi in shades of cream and tan grow in clusters along the bark. The lighting is soft and natural, highlighting the ridged edges of the fungi. The background is a creamy, out-of-focus wash of green foliage and pale white flowers, creating a dreamy bokeh effect that makes the sharp details of the tree pop.
I took a stroll through the National Botanic Gardens at Kilmacurragh yesterday, and while the exotic blooms do steal the show, I couldn’t resist a fungi photo as well!

A low-angle, close-up photograph of two wild mushrooms growing amongst tall, vibrant green blades of grass. The larger mushroom in the foreground shows its textured, tan-coloured gills and a thick, brownish stalk. A second, slightly smaller mushroom sits just behind it. The lighting is soft and natural, filtering through a dense canopy of trees in the blurred background, creating a serene, earthy, and magical woodland atmosphere.
Getting a bug's eye view of the Irish forest floor, 🍄 There is a whole hidden world beneath our feet if we just take the time to look.

A vertical, low-angle shot taken from the forest floor looking up towards a canopy of tall, slender trees with bare branches against a pale sky. The bright sun is positioned behind the trees, creating a strong backlight effect. In the foreground, clumps of vibrant green grass and small plants are illuminated from behind, making them appear to glow translucent neon green.

A wide-angle, eye-level shot of a dense, atmospheric woodland. Slender tree trunks dominate the frame, heavily draped in thick, vibrant lime-green moss that glows against the muted background. The ground is a rich tapestry of copper-coloured fallen leaves and decaying wood. In the distance, a tangle of bare, dark branches creates a delicate lace-like pattern against a soft, overcast sky. The overall mood is serene, ancient, and quintessentially Irish.
I really stepped into a literal emerald dream when I found myself in this forest by the River Ow. 🌲✨

Tomorrow I’m following the little stream nearby.
