Dale offers the prompt “art for art’s sake” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
Below are photos of Spanish moss. It hangs from trees in the southeastern part of the United States. I think of it as a swirling bunch mindless modern (or pretentious postmodern) art as an excuse to use it for this prompt.
We were in Tampa, Florida, recently. The place where we stayed had many trees with this growing on them.



That’s an interesting moss form, very unusual, thank you Frank

Spanish moss is very intriguing. I have seen it a lot over the years. Interesting observation “I think of it as a swirling bunch mindless modern (or pretentious postmodern) art”
Blessings.

Hahaha! Looks like my brain (i have never seen my brain, mind you) but that is what I would paint if I had to paint my brain. I just love how the leaf just appeared out of nowhere! I didn’t see it there for a moment. Hmmm, I’m not all tangled twine! I love these Frank!

Hi Frank! I agree with your opinion of Spanish Moss. I see you were in Tampa recently. It was sure a lot warmer than here right now. 23 degrees at 3am as I stoked the fireplace. Well, at least I can call it exercise! Enjoy your day and your posts are always appreciated! Your friend Dan
