I found this Slime Mould plasmodium on a log a few weeks back, my eye caught by the very lacy pattern.

There is something fascinating yet rather unpleasant about these fungi.

Blimey, that IS unusual...I like the lacey patterns too

I certainly never have seen one either. At first I thought it was a piece of ice. Thanks for the explanation on this very well captured image. ~BV~

What an awesome find. From the thumbnail I wasn't sure if it was a spider's web or ice, and it's neither! Nicely captured.

Like intricate branches or roots of a huge tree, or a river tributaries from outer space - an almost universal pattern of nature. Well seen.

Definitely unusual, and you got such a great shot of it. The vein like patterns are fascinating. "V"
