I rarely find time to collect samples, photograph them, edit and post photos. I always get stuck somewhere. But today I found a nice bloom of what I believe are Haematococcus, and found a little bit of time to produce a couple of photos of it and its inhabitants:
Stack of 8.
Stack of 12.
All taken with my Olympus Vanox AH, DIC, FK2.5x, Canon 5DmarkII, DIY flash illuminator. Two are stacks, rest are single shots.
Haematococcus images: Olympus SB Apo 40x 1.00 HI
Ciliates: Leitz 50x 1.00 170mm water immersion.
IDs welcome!

Re: Haematococcus from a pond
This things seemed to enjoy eating the Haematococcus. Anyone recognize it? (Same as 1st image above)
