I know, I know, bad DOF. I was in a hurry and didn't want to try to make it bigger.

There is something delicate about this small thing trying to cling to life in what appears to be frosty weather! Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it? :) Nice photo. Best of luck!

The frost looks delicate, it's shot well and the colors are great but the picture as a whole does not draw me in.

Great capture! Poor little guy looks like he's barely hanging on. :-)

Well spotted... both the lichen and the ice crystals capture delicate very nicely indeed.

Good focus. The focal point (lichen, according to your title) does not take up enough room in the frame. Overall, a decent shot.

Good choice of subject for this challenge, but it came out a bit dark and the piece of the tree dominates too much for my taste - especially the out of focus bright area in the foreground. The brightness is the problem to me on that not the focus. It just pulls me away from the lichen. I think a tighter crop and an angle that showed more detail in the lichen would have been better.

just a little brighter would fit my tastes better, and a little more DOF, nice work!

I'm really diggin the contrast between the rough surface of the tree and the delicate lichen growing on it. You've captured a 10 from me with this beautiful shot.
