this is a tweaked picture of the algae blooms, but they did actually look this bright and green in the sunlight. the camera captured them less vividly than they actually looked.

Many times a day an army of men worked hard on the sun to clean up the beach where loads of algae were left on the sand.
algae (ăl`jē) [plural of Lat. alga=seaweed], a large and diverse group of primarily aquatic plantlike organisms. These organisms were previously classified as a primitive subkingdom of the plant kingdom, the thallophytes (plants that lack true roots, stems, leaves, and flowers). More recently, most algae have been classified in the kingdom Protista or in another major group called the eukarya (or eukaryotes), which includes animals and higher plants. The algae have chlorophyll and can manufacture their own food through the process of photosynthesis. They are distributed worldwide in the sea, in freshwater, and in moist situations on land. Nearly all seaweeds are marine algae. Algae that thrive in polluted water, some of which are toxic, can overmultiply, resulting in an algal bloom and seriously unbalancing their ecosystem.

Algae (or possibly lichen or even extremely fine moss) growing on a fence by the canal.
In Australia it's rare to find this kind of thing at all, let alone growing on bare metal!
This is dedicated to my beautiful friends Denise, Rasmus and their lovely lil bub. They are also lil Riley's Godparents and boy is she excited to meet her lil brother soon!
This was shot at my favorite mossy location and they were both such champs for lying and getting really comfortable on the wet, mushy (or mushroomy more like it) ground. so cute to see them cuddling each other just so in love! awh!! Also with the help of my darling Chris for supporting me on the stool and helping with the flying cloth. Unfortunately for the lack of sunlight I had to hike it up on PS to make them glow, and it turned out just as i hoped :)
Thanks Denise & Rasmus for naturally being so passionate and loving, it was super easy to shoot the both of you! hope you're happy with these fairy woodland series. much love xx
