Another view of the calm lagoon separated from the rough surf by a wall of algae. Note the ducks taking it easy, not having to deal with the waves.
Terrestrial algae. Nostoc is a genus of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) that swells up when wet, but is much less visible when dry. Various colloquial names e.g. star jelly, witch butter.

Various combinations of algal species were grown in 80 cattle tanks for a biofuels experiment. Photo by Daryl Marshke/Michigan Photography.
This is a tiny little pond on a Nature Preserve that I haven't visited since last spring (when it was breathtakingly beautiful in all its green finery!). www.flickr.com/photos/sparky2/2956550/
At present, the water levels are wayyyyyy down and the shaded end is covered in a thick, briney algae...but I've never seen so many birds and critters in such a concentrated area. So many changes lately in our local habitats; I'll definitely be watching to see what's happening here...
This fish has changed into a golden algae eater and has almost doubled in size. A good tank cleaner, spends most of his time suckered on to the glass eating the algae. Apparently these can show aggression when older, but mine has been fine for over a year and a half now. Time will tell!
Someone in the atelier worked with acrylic sheets/plexiglass and I decided to give it a try.
It is quite different from metal plates. Good thing is that you can place your artwork under the plate and work over it...also it is cheap.
The downside is that larger plates will crack when run through the press

The oddly sculpted rocks at Bean Hollow have some of the most beautiful growths of this algae or lichen on them. They range from greens to yellows to bright orange.
