Description

These old roof tiles have had a longtime to grow lichens (a complex life form being a symbiotic partnership of two separate organisms, a fungus and an alga. The dominant partner is the fungus, which gives the lichen the majority of its characteristics, from its thallus shape to its fruiting bodies.)
This was shot at an old farm outside Kalocsa, Hungary, a town which was founded in the 11th century by Hungary￿s first King, Stephen. Following Turkish occupation, it was burned in 1602. After the Turks were expelled the town was completely rebuilt in the 18th century. Then the communists left some ugly architecture from their regime, but the town flourishes as an agricultural center today and is known for its paprika peppers and folk art.
