Steps at Alexandra Palace

At Point Reyes National Seashore. Although it contains green chlorophyll, red pigments dominate and act as a sunscreen. Algae such as these need no soil.

Algae

Lafayette, Colorado

A lot of turtles look pretty grubby when they live in the lakes and ponds of the city parks

Another from the archives that was waiting for attention. The early spring yellow algae? was attention getting.

Once the fall monsoons ramp up and scour the footprints of cows and Labor Day campers, I'll head back up to one of my favorite spots where every few years, the water levels in the lake are low enough to venture out onto the mud flats. I've only witnessed twice the algae that stretches between mud cracks, dried weeds, and rocks. It's space alien green and covers everything with a furry skin.

Wilson County, Texas. Pond algae. No direct color editing.

High up on an Exmoor hill the trees along this part of the road are covered in moss and algae. This could possibly from being in cloud much of the time

Momma makes sure her children eat their greens. The sound of baby coots is a real pacifier for me :)

In spring and summer, the ocean returns much of the sand that was washed away from beaches during winter storm surf, with results such as this.

This is one of the Red Algae.

This is a photo that I took while canoeing of some sinister looking algae growing on the bottom of the river, and the reflection of my hand holding the camera.

ODC-Bridge Over Troubled Waters

I used the photo below as my template to create this in DDG-Text-2. Green Water is troubled water and we have it here in the summer in Cayuga Lake. It's full of Algae Bloom and dangerous to swim in. It can cause some nasty skin rashes. Much of it occurs from the fertilizer that people put on their fields and lawns. It runs downhill into the lake since it's in a deep valley.

Los Osos, California

I'm guessing there was an invertebrate on or near this algae when the yellowlegs snagged it. The bird is not a vegetarian.

The sun was shining on this seaweed making it a lovely rich colour, which caught my eye as I walking along the beach
