This shows a pink stage and a resistant stage, the latter one day older than the former.

This was shot (hand-held) with my E-M1 and Kiron 105mm macro lens at f11, with a Marumi +5 supplementary, RC twin flash. The full magnification of the combination was not used because of difficulty getting the flash aimed at the subject at the short distance. The scale is indicated by the presence of common moss (i.e. not club moss). (That fragment was already on top).

There was knee-deep quicksand-like mud alongside the log. A more recent visit, after local rain, found the locality was now a pond.
