Nature's textures fascinate me. Here is a small slice of the colors created by cyanobacteria at Mammoth Hot Springs. Another example of the amazing colors and life-forms one finds at Yellowstone.

A few more examples below:

"The word "bacteria" is often associated with disease, but only a few kinds of bacteria cause problems for humans. The other thousands of bacteria, although all simple organisms, play a complex role in Earth's ecosystems. In fact, cyanobacteria made our oxygen-rich atmosphere possible. They were the first photosynthesizers, more than 3 billion years ago. Without bacteria, we would not be here." nps.gov

Have a terrific Tuesday!
