Some microscopic pictures of moss

It's raining too hard to take my little one backpacking and I can't go dayhiking this week because my kids are on spring break. I've been working on ID'ing bryophytes growing in my city. I've learned a lot about taking good microscopic pictures in these past two weeks. My new GG backpack is on it's way and I expect to be using it on my next dayhike.
