I haven't been to the wildlife refuge in Alviso for quite some time. Today I went to check it out and was startled by the algae invasion at the trail head. It was fascinating to look at. So I decided to compose this panorama using some wildflowers as the foreground subjects.
What type of filamentous algae would self-organize into a pattern like this inside one of the jars in my biology classroom? So bizarre and yet so beautiful.

This is another shot of the Cuckmere River. I'm not exactly sure why I took this photo, let alone upload it. I find the patterns created by the algae interesting, if not strangely beautiful. But its not the sort of phenonmenon that usually gets most people's attention.

Enhanced images showing that the Glory returned algae close to the edge of a pond is centred on the camera not the cameraman. In this case the scattering is apparently done by more cylindrical fruiting bodies and the glory is not in complete circles. See the comment below for more detail and speculation.
{pronto, dona Bianca Maria, não é um cinza, tá satisfeita agora?}
Nyammmm, lindo né? *____*
O Algae segue a linha de cor do Dirty Sexy Money, mas é um pouco mais escuro que ele. Como eu amo verdes sujinhos, fiquei doida atrás dele por um tempão, até que finalmente comprei. Aí você quer muito um esmalte e é aquela coisa, quando finalmente consegue... não usa hahahahaha
Demorei um bocado para usar e obviamente me arrependi mil fios de cabelo por não ter usado antes. Ele tem esse tom lindo de verde sujinho, é super pigmentado (cobre com uma camada) e esse brilho que vocês podem ver na foto é todo dele, não gosto de passar top coat em esmaltes desse tom porque sempre acaba dando uma alterada, mesmo que mínima (e não, eu não tirei a foto com o esmalte ainda "molhado", eu tinha passado ele já fazia umas 5 horas mais ou menos).
Belezura de esmalte heim e barato ainda por cima!

I bought a pet Marimo Ball Algae at the Night Market! It's supposed to bring me good luck. I think it's super cute.
