Lichens are an important part of the Earth. They help form soil by breaking apart rocks with oxalic acid to use the minerals for themselves.
Lichens in the soil differ from those on boulders primarily due to their microhabitats and environmental conditions. Soil lichens often experience higher moisture levels and nutrient availability, which can support different species adapted to these conditions. In contrast, boulder lichens face harsher conditions, including greater exposure to sunlight, wind, and limited nutrients, leading to the dominance of more resilient species that can withstand these stressors. Additionally, soil lichens may interact with different microbial communities than those found on boulders.
The photography field is growing, in a sense. There is more competition at the bottom, but less competition at the top. This is due in part to the digital revolution, which has destroyed the chief barrier to entry-cost of equipment. Anyone with a little talent can purchase a DSLR and shoot a good picture. However, master photographers are still few and far between-most people cannot take a DSLR and shoot a great picture. There is demand for these individuals.

Lichens is the group of fungus that is found growing on rocks.
Lichen are a composite of two organisms (fungus and algae) living symbiotically and they have a small amount of acid. ;p and it breaks down rocks by growing on rocks!

Plnats grow on rocks like lichens and mosses.
Lichens are a symbiotic relationship between fungus and algae or cyanobacteria. The fungus provides structure and protection, while the algae or cyanobacteria photosynthesize to provide energy. Lichens are commonly found growing on rocks, trees, and soil in a variety of environments.
Nanovolumes of acids released from lichens react with rocks and minerals.

Lichens and mosses erode rocks by producing acids. These acids lead to the deterioration of rocks, such as limestone and marble.
Organic acids
Lichens are a symbiotic relationship between fungi and algae that play a significant role in weathering rocks to form soil. The fungi in lichens produce acids that break down minerals in rocks, contributing to the process of soil formation over time.
