What it looks like inside a cloud (about a mile above sea level). The oak leaves are about 5 feet away. There at least half a dozen trees further out (30-60 feet/10-20 meters) that I can see. Can you spot them?

I'd love to go back to the Andes and wander around the #cloudforest for a bit
There are some really cool hikes near Boquete, Panama. We just did one the other day called Bajo Mono in Los Naranjos, which is one of my favorites.
You get a little of everything - a walk in the cloud forest, a really cool waterfall, spectacular views, a few animals, and more.
Really fun!

We're in Ecuador so I haven't been posting much but here are some cool owl-eyed #butterflies from #MashpiLodge in the #CloudForest.

#TravelPhotography from #OnThisDay in 2019 when we found ourselves hiking through the cloud forest at the top of a volcanic rim in #Nicaragua. This is the #Mombacho #Volcano and this lovely bit of lush, dense foliage provided some cool relief from the warmth of the day and that of the heat coming from the volcano's fumaroles that we'd put our hands into. Great views of Lake Nicaragua from the summit too. Hard work, though.

Winter inside Volunteer Park Conservatory, Seattle…a luscious Orchid Cactus flower.
Disocactus phyllanthoides is endemic to Mexico and known from the cloud forest at elevations of 1,500–1,850 m above sea level.
It has probably been in cultivation since prehistoric times, by the indigenous peoples of South America and Mesoamerica.
I hope it is still flowering in its cloud forests of origin.
