You went a long way to get these images Madalena! Congratulations, this is our Spotting of the Day!
"From remote Faroe Islands, this moss (division Bryophyta) is our Spotting of the Day! The Faroe Islands are a rugged archipelago between the Norwegian Sea and the North Atlantic with a subpolar oceanic climate. The natural vegetation of these islands is dominated by arctic-alpine plants, wildflowers, grasses, moss and lichen. Mosses do not have seeds, and after fertilization develop sporophytes with unbranched stalks topped with a single capsule containing spores, seen here holding drops of water".
