EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Scenedesmus algae, a nonmotile colonial green algae. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals the mesmerizing arrangement of cells in a row. With its vibrant colors and detailed structure, this photograph truly brings to life the microscopic world of aquatic biology. The Scenedesmus sp. algae featured here are part of the diverse community of planktonic organisms that inhabit our planet's waters. These unicellular microorganisms play a crucial role in sustaining marine ecosystems as photosynthetic organisms, contributing to the production of oxygen and serving as an essential food source for other aquatic fauna. The white background highlights every minute detail, allowing us to appreciate the complexity and delicate nature of these tiny organisms. This image serves as a reminder that even within seemingly invisible realms, there exists an abundance of life waiting to be explored. Steve Gschmeissner's expertise behind this photograph is evident through his skillful use of color and composition. By magnifying it 3300 times its actual size when printed at just 10 centimeters wide, he invites us into a world we would otherwise never see with our naked eyes.
