see the winch line.. that's how they pull up the nets, some other are filling further down the cliff.. hard work in the scorching desert sun.. This algae is used in many products now. ( beauty prods I think ) --
took this one with my cellphone cam, i don't remember too well but i think this is an algae, most likely chlorophyceae with blue dye.
Si mal no recuerdo es un alga de las chlorophyceae, teñida con azul de metileno para ver cloroplastos. La tome con mi cel.

Wandering during the last few days in a thermally active area behind the Sierra Nevada, I happened to find a beautiful hot spring in northern Mono county, California. The unbearably hot water (around 50°C, or 120°F) deposited beautiful albeit minuscule terraces of travertine upon cooling, and flowed downhill creating ponds and rivulets. In some of these, the temperature seemed to be right enough for algal blooming, like in this image. I loved the tenacity of life, algae living in hot water while the snow was around me, and as I always side, I love green, particularly this hue. The scale on this image is essentially 1:1. One can see the dry grass on the edge of the rivulet and the full color of the algae below the water. Flow direction is right to left. The algae is actually anchored to a thin veil of calcium carbonate (travertine) that encrusts the stream bottom.

Dr. Isaac Berzin has stayed true to his algal calling, but is improving the economics of the process by also harvesting valuable biomolecules, not just bulk fuel.

Edited ISS038 image of red algae growing in really salty water in a drying pond in an arid area. The red is quite striking...

It was extremely hot on Saturday and I walked down to this Park in Preston where the Algae was growing profusely over the water. It didn't deter the dogs from wanting to cool down!
After a friend of mine bought some for himself, I joined in on the Marimo craze. I own 4 of these strangely adorable algae balls. They are natural water filters considered sacred in Japan and I absolutely love 'em.
This branching structure reminds me of drawings in the book about prehistoric flora and fauna I had in my childhood
Auburn University aquatic ecologist Alan Wilson and colleagues are engaged in a $2 million study aimed at preventing poisonous cyanobacterial bloom outbreaks in lakes and reservoirs. The blooms are also known as blue-green algae or pond scum.

Sometimes when I am on the walking path above the spillway, I can look down and see this. There is a shallow part of the water where the big fish gather. Shallow enough that the fish can be seen even though the water is murky. This large carp appeared to be eating algae, or stuff in the algae. It was using that mouth like a vacuum cleaner.
