Late autumn observations. Värmland, Sweden (November 17, 2019).

Oakmoss and shield lichens growing on a blackthorn branch, at Glapthorn Cow Pastures.

You ever go for a walk after a storm and see lichen covered branches on the ground and feel a bit sad because you know that most lichen only grows a few mm a year so you could be seeing decades of growth cut short by a bit of wind? But also it's kind of nice because all that stuff is usually way up in the canopy where only birds and squirrels get to enjoy it but now it's down here where human eyes can appreciate it? Just me?

Today's polish is SOOO PRETTY!!!! ♥️😍♥️😍♥️ I know this one will be a bit divisive, because it's that prugly, swampy, green that you either love or hate. And if I were to describe this polish I would call it a jelly version of Elysian Fields with scattered gold holo. But I can't help myself, I loved this the instant I put it on. I love how out of direct sunlight it would turn a black that just hinted at the murky base color and in the sun it turns into the sparkliest pea soup you've ever seen. 😂 Tell me what you think! Would you wear this? 👀 This is Oakmoss from Potion Polish.

the lovely hibiscus and oakmoss are @weirdfandomchick 's ladies (thanks for helping out btw ily ily ily /p)
