There is Life

Boulders in the middle of a lake with orange lichen and wildflowers growing all around them
In the middle of a lake, life grows, and it’s more complex than it looks.
That brilliant orange that caught my eye is lichen, a life form that represents a symbiotic partnership between two separate organisms: fungus and alga.
Anyone who suggests knowing the science can deplete the magic is mistaken.
