This genus occurs mainly in Europe, NW Africa, and it stretches as far Tibet, Mongolia, China and Japan. |

Hello Vera,
your very beautiful close-up in perfectly well decided framing offers an almost intimate look into an unearthy space of marvellous shapes and colours.
Fascinating, eye catching image.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter
