dank

Saanich, Vancouver Island

the West Coast is also known as the Wet Coast, and here's evidence why...it's easy to tell from the dank conditions that it's been raining here for a while

as for the green coating on the trees, think it is Cat-Tail Moss, but then I'm no bryologist

This is what I miss about the west coast, in addition to mountains and ocean :-) Superb atmospheric shot. V

Wonderful soft light and patterns in this beautiful and colorful capture. Your image really conveys the climate that is needed for the moss to grow like this. Reminds me of the Hoh Rain Forest. VV

I don't think I have ever seen this on the east coast. I have seen moss on trees but not covering them. Interesting sight! Very pretty with the colors at the bottom too.

Grim, sodden, dank, maybe you need a vitamin D boost David.

Nice David - textured greens and jagged reds; a prehistoric feel with it.
