Red algae often grows in snow and on glaciers. The algae is the food source for ice worms. I did not see ice worms.
Design Principle: The emphasis is the white water in motion that is created as the water runs the green covered algae wall. Rule of thirds placement of the rock pile. Rhythm and movement created from the different shades of green algae on locks/damn.
Camera Settings: Sony DSC-H5
Aperture, f/8
Shutter Speed,1/3 sec.
ISO-80
Intended Narrative: When I read the section about shutter speed, creating motion using shutter speed, I knew that I would capture a picture of water. I have always found the velvety white appearance that is created with a slow shutter speed. I never knew how to achieve this. I really like the green algae slime creates lines and movement on its own. Then pooling at the bottom the water creates motion and a contrast to the brown and green earth tones.
Editing: I cropped image to have the rock pile in the lower left third of the picture.

Algae at the edge of Longmoor Pool.
Sutton park is the largest Urban Park in Europe and is a National Nature Reserve.
A long line of algae serves as a sort of coffer dam and gives the ducks a nice calm pool to doze in, rather than the rough surf.
Former U-M undergraduate research assistant Brenna Boehman filters algae collected from large tanks at the university's E.S. George Reserve near Pinckney, Mich. Various combinations of algal species were grown in 80 cattle tanks for a biofuels experiment. Photo by Daryl Marshke/Michigan Photography.
Congressman Bilbray is the top Republican in advocating for the development of algae fuel, and sees it as a potential major part of America's energy independent future. Not only does it have the ability to create good-paying green jobs around the country, but it is cleaner than petroleum-based fuels and can be produced by American companies... in the United States.
