Red Algae - Polysiphonia
Red Algae - Polysiphonia
I have been growing red algae in a salt water sample jar for some time. Grows in small balls of red threads. This is Polysiphonia at various magnifications and illumination techniques.

Excellent images. It is official - I have neglected darkfield for too long!

Very beautiful photos! the bottom one can be also interpreted as (1) stone/brick statues (2) Cactii plants.
My collected marine green Oluva algae sample contained only trace amounts of red cell strings. Wonder if they were red algae...

Re: Red Algae - Polysiphonia
More great images! The first image in darkfield, with its many colors, is particularly appealing.

Re: Red Algae - Polysiphonia
Thank you all for you comments! Yes, I agree. Darkfield is a fantastic technique for beautiful images. I just bought a new oil darkfield condenser that will allow me to go all the way up to 100X at NA 1.4. Before I could only do 0.9.
