Description
A closer look at a specimen of the unpleasantly named Dog-Sick Slime mould on grass on the green at the end of Glenferness Avenue, Bournemouth.
I think it is rather beautiful.

It is indeed very beautiful. So many tiny textures that you have captured so well!
Wonderful Work,
strange but beautiful
I see about half your images first thing in my morning, and these "dog sick slime" images do not improve my appetite! A beautiful closeup; and, in zoom, really, it's more like a collection of crystals than a slime mold, etc. It also looks like a porridge that someone threw on the grass. Another amazing closeup from you, and the background is dark and sets-off the slime. You take us places many of us haven't been: A world traveler in the ground beneath our feet...
Yes, up close it is quite pretty and delicate! Lovely shot!
Wonderful detail. If you ignore the name it is rather attractive. It seems more mineral than vegetable in appearance.
Is beautiful and looks delicious
I think it is very crystal like.
Superb capture Andrea. God bless.
A great find, Andrea, and a very interesting photo too.
Awesome macro shot Andrea.
It sure looks much prettier than its name.
