Nature Photography : Roots on the trail

The roots in this Boreal Forest reminded me of the movie Avatar.

The idea that all the trees and all the plants are connected underground.

Mycelium are incredibly tiny “threads” of the greater fungal organism that wrap around or bore into tree roots. Taken together, myecelium composes what's called a “mycorrhizal network,” which connects individual plants together to transfer water, nitrogen, carbon and other minerals.
