Bog cotton on Valentia Island, Co Kerry, Ireland

@derangervisions is having another photography competition this is my very first entry to a photo contest that doesn't involve food. My photography skills would be on par with that of a 3 or 4 year old goat :joy: . I only ever take photos with my phone on auto mode, the photographers kryptonite. So when I went into my PRO mode on my phone my head nearly exploded. I took this photo while on holidays with the family on a trip to Valencia Island, it is an Island off the south coast of Ireland. On a clear day you can actually see Skellig Micheal from the island. Skellig Micheal is the Island where Rey finally tracked down the long-lost Luke Skywalker. It is a rugged island with many monastic cells that date from the sixth century. The massive amount of work and dedication to A. get to the island and B. construct the settlement at this time must have been immense. There is also on a neighbouring skellig. the second largest colony of gannet, and a large population of puffins. Ok so that got a bit off track. This post is a flower post so below is a picture of Bog cotton. "Eriophorum angustifolium, commonly known as common cottongrass or common cottonsedge, is a species of flowering plant in the sedge family Cyperaceae. Native to North America, North Asia, and Northern Europe, it grows on peat or acidic soils, in open wetland, heath or moorland" SRC. If you would like to enter this contest you can do so here!

Oh one last thing, I have set up my witness node with the help of Jamie. This node ads to the numbers currently supporting the whaleshares blockchain. Without witness nodes there would be no whaleshares to post on or make money off. Witnesses count on your votes so if you could spare a vote for me I would really appreciate it. You can vote for my witness here https://whaleshares.io/~witnesses I am in the list but you can also go to the bottom of the page and type in moonunit and click "share". You can read my witness post HERE!
