@MikeBolam That's really impressive, did you bring a big spotlight for the photoshoot?

@MikeBolam Fascinating Mike, thank you for sharing. Was that "illuminated with UV and shot with a camera" please?

@MikeBolam The longer I ponder, the easier to liken lichen.

@MikeBolam so beautiful!! Wow! I had no idea it glowed under UV. I’ve seen cut rocks glow under UV and it’s amazing how much beauty we never see at all. Thanks for this! Nature is lush!!

@MikeBolam Superb photo. Thanks for posting. When out in the wilds I often have a UV torch with me because so many organisms flouresce with lovely colours like this.

@MikeBolam Very cool image Mike. I have just finished a ten-week lichen identification course and now I have a UV torch I'll be trying this myself - thanks for the inspiration!

@glasspusher @Kierkegaanks @MAJ1 @Soldusty @JustaJason007 @revndm @LikeItOrLumpIt @alexpsmith @Shivviness Lichens aren’t bioluminescent, which is to say that if you turn out the lights, they won’t glow in the dark. Under ultraviolet light, however, many of them fluoresce, glowing vividly in ways that most humans can’t detect in normal daylight conditions. https://nature.ca/en/fluorescent-lichens-dazzling-creatures-of-light/ magical
