I've been collecting too many lichen photos, so here's a small photo dump of a few of them. I find the flat ones just as interesting as the curly ones, and they're all the more interesting the closer you look.
That last one was an alpine forest species, and much larger than the others

Closeup of a thick tangled blob of grey lichen sitting on top of a wooden fence rail, with another black lichen stretching out flat across the wooden surface. It looks like someone has dropped a piece of grey blobby fruit on the floor, and all its black juice has dribbled out into a puddle
Another collection of variable-coloured lichen. The strongest ones here are a bright orange flakey-looking one with raised cups, and a silver-grey one above it. However, there's a more upright orange one in the top corner that looks like flames, a different grey one with little hairs coming out of the sides of its lobes, and a mixture of flat ones in shades of brown, black, grey and white filling in the gaps between them all
