Ventured out again this morning, Really strange and slightly apprehensive after being out of the UK due to Corona Virus for 4 months. This looked an interesting abstract in the marina at Sovereign Harbour which is just outside of Eastbourne. Decided on a B&W conversion.

These green algae are usually growing where fresh water enters the sea and are very slippery.

Diese grünen Algen wachsen normalerweise, wo Süßwasser ins Meer fließt, und sind sehr schlüpfrig.

The sun was setting in the marsh and things were very quiet. There were a few birds but everything too distant for a shot. When I spotted the Yellowlegs I took a shot because I liked the old tree trunk and the colors of the water and algae.

Growing on pilings at the Delaware Bay

I love shooting macro as wide open as I can so that only a sliver of the subject is in focus. While exploring in my backyard, I spied my fence line in the shade with a hint of sun illuminating the algae growing on the fence. I thought a close up look at the algae might make for an interesting "What is That?" composition.

Some days the tide is full of algae, while others it's not.

Two leaves on the river with a ton of algae made for a strange photo, but one I like.

The red pools of water here in Desert Shores, California are caused by red algae and bacteria that thrive in the area's salty, alkaline waters. The high salinity supports microorganisms like Dunaliella salina (a red algae) and Halobacterium (a bacteria), which produce pigments that give the water a reddish hue. These organisms are well-suited to the harsh conditions of the ponds, where evaporation and agricultural runoff concentrate the salts and nutrients, creating an ideal environment for their growth.

I shot these earlier today I my way back home from doing real estate photo shoots in nearby Borrego Springs.

Years ago there were plans to install pumps to circulate the water here, but the project was never implemented. :(

Any algae specialists out there?

My submission for 52frames week 31: Choose a Color.

Green is the chosen color. Although, a case could also be made for white.

Some sort of algae experiment.

This grebe was swimming in a sea of algae on Commonwealth Lake.

Ptilota densa grows on coralline algae as well as on rocks in low intertidal and subtidal water. These are worn specimens cast ashore and the Ptilota shows some yellow-green that would be red in life. The coralline, possibly Lithothrix aspergillum, is a lighter pink in life. Both are Red Algae. Measurement across the specimens ~6" (15cm).
