Tiny forest are essentially miniature landscapes that can be found almost anywhere if you have a lens that sees them.  In this case I was exploring some old wooden fence post tops with a Canon 100mm Macro Lens 

These little natural fungi and moss forest have quite an array of: colors (especially for February), shapes, and plant life.  Here are some top down images of the tops of the posts. 

Some side view images. The narrow depth of field is helpful to highlight one particular plant in the forest. 

This subject is something I look forward to photographing more in the future. As the seasons change the variety of plant life must change with it so it will be interesting to go back to these same posts and see how they change. 

These images, and many more, are available for purchase through my Gift Shop.

The river bottom of the Upper Delaware River is an ever changing and diverse landscape. The general beauty of the underwater river world is that it is rarely the same but largely familiar. Small things tend to hustle along with the flow of the minor currents and large things tend to stay put unless the river really decides to force the point.  

In the little shallow areas the fall landscape is scenic as it changes moment to moment. Things float into the frame and things float out. It's beautiful in how it is a moving natural collage.

The leaf litter introduced to the Delaware River from the trees along the banks, and it's tributaries, is a noticeable change from the more plant dominated summer riverbed. The fall foliage adds quite a bit of diverse colors and shapes as it moves along the river bottom. 

The leaves collect and decompose as they are buried under the silt and broken down by the water and ice. As they are breaking down the leaf litter is releasing nutrients that is washing downstream and nourishing those areas. 

High water in the Spring churns up the riverbed collage - taking things away and adding new things.
