Tiny giants.
![cladonia lichen cups 2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/ewkaw/23uQrRkDz69wo5N3H7AJYWgoS4u5GvU1JubU7WdG4xDcVKQEvALxQ7Gb5X4m3aZvswZy7.jpg)

**Cladonia** lichens are still my absolute favourite (even though I do like them all). Those tiny little cups in mint or grey colour are so nice to touch, that after every shoot I have to pet them a bit. I doubt they like it, some definitely don't... but I just can't resist the temptation.

The ones you see on the first two shots are probably the biggest ones I ever found. The more open one at the bottom of the photograph was probably 0.7 cm across. I know it is still a tiny thing, but for quite a bit for a lichen.
From a distance they could be easily mistaken for very, VERY small mushrooms. 

![cladonia lichen cups 1.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/ewkaw/23tvcMWDMZvZPxVHfjf9acU4MW2ad1Lrer1FVgmL7PHZ8EdZApxhTAm4rRgHJRLHNa2zY.jpg)

Most of them I find growing on decaying branches, tree stumps, rocks or bricks covered in moss. Those were growing directly on the soil between mosses and pine needles.

![cladonia lichen cups 3.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/ewkaw/23uFKExFV2cgzzzwc4jJwKSqa4FWqqEfcp2PtwdAxcxUp3vK8Ge8Esrp1jckjuLfDBXUF.jpg)

And here is a nice bunch of them from a different location all mixed up with another lichen type that look like pieces of green algae.

There's a little world beneath your feet. I know you're careful where you step since a misstep could potentially wipe out a new civilization.  

There's one picture in your posting that looks like coral without the water.  Very cool indeed ๐Ÿ˜€
