EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, nature reveals its artistic side as map lichen (Rhizocarpon geographicum) adorns a rugged schist boulder. Nestled amidst the breathtaking Nordtirol region of the Austrian Alps, this vibrant display sits proudly at an impressive altitude of 2250 meters above sea level. The intricate patterns and textures of the map lichen resemble a miniature labyrinth, inviting us to embark on an enchanting journey through its organic maze.

This arty shot captures not only the beauty but also the resilience of life that thrives even in extreme alpine conditions. The abstract composition adds an extra layer of intrigue to this already mesmerizing scene. As we gaze upon this photograph by Alex Hyde from Nature Picture Library, our imaginations run wild with thoughts of ancient cartographers mapping out uncharted territories or intrepid explorers navigating their way through unexplored landscapes. So let your mind wander into nature's own masterpiece – where art meets science – as you get lost in this image that showcases both Mother Earth's creativity and her ability to surprise us at every turn.
