Diatoms, light micrograph C016 / 8598
Diatoms. Interphase contrast light micrograph of a selection of differently shaped diatoms. Diatoms are a group of photosynthetic, single-celled algae containing about 10, 000 species. They form an important part of the plankton at the base of the marine and freshwater food chains. Their characteristic feature is the intricately patterned glass-like cell wall, or frustule, which often has rows of tiny holes, known as striae. Magnification: x70 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of diatoms, a group of single-celled algae that play a vital role in marine and freshwater ecosystems. The image, captured under interphase contrast light microscopy by Frank Fox, reveals a selection of differently shaped diatoms magnified at x70. Diatoms are photosynthetic organisms with approximately 10,000 known species. They form an essential part of the planktonic community, serving as the foundation for food chains in aquatic environments. What sets diatoms apart is their remarkable cell wall structure called frustule – a glass-like casing adorned with rows of minuscule holes known as striae. In this mesmerizing composition, we witness the diversity within this microscopic world. Each diatom boasts its own unique shape and pattern on its frustule. From delicate curves to geometric designs, these tiny organisms exhibit nature's artistry at its finest. The significance of this image extends beyond aesthetics; it sheds light on the wonders hidden beneath our waters. By studying diatoms and their ecological roles, scientists gain insights into ecosystem health and environmental changes. Frank Fox's skillful capture invites us to appreciate the intricacies found even in unseen corners of our planet. It serves as a reminder that there is immense beauty waiting to be discovered when we delve into the microcosms that surround us.
