   Another fine discovery. It’s nice that you can combine the
   Leptothrix discophora with the fall foliage in one photo

   I like these best, I think, when the Leptothrix is bound by the angled rocks, like this one. And the sprinkling of leaves is a bonus.

     Thanks, Lynn. I always like to photograph Leptothrix discophora when there’s something else interesting going on in the viewfinder at the same time. I also always like when I can completely fill the viewfinder with nothing but Leptothrix discophora. However, that requires either a very large patch of Leptothrix discophora or the use of a macro lens or both.
