Welcome to Qurator's Mischievous Mondays!
This will be a weekly competition that we will be hosting every Monday. We want to see a little more engagement and fun when it comes to some of our competitions so this will be a simpler and shorter competition. Easy to enter, but maybe not so easy to win. ;) This competition will be similar to the Monday Missions we had a long time ago, but instead of writing posts to enter we will now consider only the comments and answers on this blog as your entry to win.
Why Mischievous?
We all could use a little fun in our lives. We would even say that we deserve it, let loose a little and have a go at making everyone laugh or think a little, even if it is a little over the top or pure silliness. Go all out and let your creative juices flow.

One must possess an artistic perspective and the ability to think creatively about the things around us, whether it be a fresh flower, a healthy tree, or a piece of ripe fruit. Alternatively, we can also appreciate the beauty of decayed fruits or flowers, dried leaves, dead trees, or even mushrooms. Whenever I walk in the forest, I always keep an eye out for such things and try to capture them with my camera. During the mushroom hunt last autumn, my husband and I stumbled upon a beautiful tree that looked like a work of art.

I took this picture when I traveled to Paraty, in Rio de Janeiro. This city is amazing. It's a place where the past and present blend in the architecture, and we can see this when we walk through the streets. It's truly an amazing city. I wish to go back there soon!
Indeed, there's beauty in decay. Below is a picture of a banana plant that sprotted out from the root of a dead and decaying older banana plant. This is a natural phenomenon that is common in a group of plants known as Sucker. Sucker plants are plants that have the ability to reproduce their offspring from their root, mostly when the parent plant is fully matured or about dying off. Examples of sucker plants are banana, red raspberry, lilac, etc... Indeed, there is beauty I decay... Thank you 😊

entry the art of decay
when a beech tree in the national forest is infested with fungus it is cut and removed to avoid spreading the fungus. the tree stump decays within a few years. this stump was probably cut a year or two ago in addition to the dark or gray coloration of the fungus, the cracks and patterns of the annual rings as well as the saw marks all contribute to making the stump a natural work of art. there is ample new growth to replenish the forest
There's beauty in decay.
Just take a good look at this pictures, then you will know indeed there's beauty in decay. Decaying shows a different beauty.
Thank you 😊

Very interesting prompt!
And you're right, we do need to have more fun in our lives- I know I certainly do!
And you're right again as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so beauty can come in many forms- even decaying things!
Nice work!
Thank you very much @qurator and congratulations to all participants. This week's theme is innovative and complex. Congratulations on the creativity.
Hola, acá vemos una flor pero su belleza cambia cada día hasta que desaparezca y vuelva otra a florecer.
There is beauty, poetry and life in the emptiness of a place transformed by the absence of human action. The personification of change over time shows us a clear and explicit change between artificial human structures and processes originating from nature. This makes the place more beautiful over time.
Decay is a natural process and only proves that nothing is permanent. We have the beauty of the beginning, middle and end of something.
Another concept that is linked to the beauty of decadence is retro culture, created with the aim of transforming the old into new, associating the past with the beauty of the present and transforming the perspective of the place as a symbol of what it was in the past.
Nowadays, just as people age, objects, buildings and places created by humans go through this, it's a natural process. Aging is a gift, therefore, we can say that: there's beauty in decay.
