Lake St. Benedict
On October 14th i took this picture of the lake on campus at Benedictine University. I was alarmed by the amount of algae beginning to form in the lake so I decided to take a picture of it. Large amounts of algae blooms cam be harmful to the lake environment because it blocks sunlight from reaching the bottom of the lake. There are plants at the bottom of the lake which are the primary source of food for fish. So if sunlight is unable to reach the plants, the plants will die and along with the plants fish will as well because they will have no food.
