A low-angle shot of the grey stone ruins of Bective Abbey under a clear, pale blue sky. To the left, a tall, square defensive tower stands intact, while the central walls feature arched windows and weathered textures. To the right, a tall, slender deciduous tree with sparse, drooping branches silhouetted against the light reaches towards the top of the frame. A dark wooden fence runs along the bottom, and the overall mood is peaceful, historic, and slightly melancholic.

A forest walk on a very wet, humid day. Moss covered trees each side of a leaf strewn path.

A little further on over the hill. Trees each side of the path with an old stone wall completely covered in bright green moss. Leaf litter all around.

Moss so bright it almost looks fake. The result of five weeks rain at Mullaghmeen in Co. Meath, Ireland.
