Diatoms, SEM
Diatoms. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of diatoms (Campylodiscus sp.). These microscopic, single-celled algae possess rigid and finely-sculpted cell walls known as frustules. Each frustule is composed of two halves, or valves, which fit neatly together. Diatoms are photosynthetic and aquatic, being found in both marine and freshwater habitats. Magnification: x390 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of diatoms, a type of single-celled algae. Taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), the image reveals the vibrant colors and finely-sculpted cell walls known as frustules that make these organisms truly remarkable. Diatoms are found in both marine and freshwater habitats, playing an essential role as photosynthetic organisms. Their ability to convert sunlight into energy makes them crucial contributors to aquatic ecosystems. These microscopic wonders exist in countless shapes and sizes, with each frustule composed of two perfectly fitting valves. The artistic nature of this photograph highlights the delicate balance between science and art. The detailed sculpting on each diatom's cell wall is reminiscent of an artist's meticulous work, showcasing nature's own creativity at its finest. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, diatoms also serve as important indicators for environmental health. Scientists study these silicaceous organisms to assess water quality and monitor changes in ecosystems over time. Displayed at a magnification of x390 on a 6x7cm print size, this image invites viewers to appreciate the hidden world within our waters. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly ordinary environments lies extraordinary beauty waiting to be discovered by those who dare to look closer.
