A Little Rough

A little smooth.

Textures from Athens, Ohio and Columbus. I always feel I need to add the state of Ohio after I write Athens so there’s no confusion as to my location.

Summer Storm at Sunset

July 13th – backyard from my 2nd floor window Power went out briefly, three times.

Coprinellus Disseminatus on Crombie Street

If it’s not abandoned furniture then it’s fungus that catches my eye. It must be the weather but so many varied species appear. These tiny mushrooms, at the base of a friend’s neighborhood tree, were there in abundance, looking at me as I got out of my car Sunday afternoon.

They are called coprinellus disseminatus or Fairy Bonnets

No Longer Standing

You might remember my August 2022 post of Dead Trees Standing Although there were three photos in the post, one tree was in Columbus. I noticed that the two dead trees in the park across the street are no longer there. They must have taken them down while I was out of town as I surely would have heard the operation.
