Widze, ze dzielisz sie na TN swoja praca :)
Bardzo dobre zdjecie ciekawego obiektu. Moze nie nalezy on do tych najbardziej kolorowych i przyciagajacych okko, ale za to niewiele osob zdaje sobie sprawe co tak na prawde zyje na dnie morz.
Szkoda, ze na chwytnikach nie zostaly jeszcze jakies zwierzeta, no ale za to Ty nie odpowiadasz :)
Pozdrawiam
Ania

P.S. Przy okazji przypominam sie z moja prosba ;)

Hi Krzysztof.
It is really rare subject and of course unknown for me. You have presented it perfectly with help of original as hot and WS. Without last one I would not understand anything. Excellent colours and brilliant details. My compliments and thanks for so interesting note too.

Hello Krzysztof,
A fine sharp presentation of this marine algal species. I find the word 'holdfast interesting. as far as I remember from my biological studies another name for the the holdfast of a seaweed is 'stype'. A stype is the marine algal equivalent of a root. Of course the word can also be taken in a colonial sense where many of the same species provide a special habitat as mentioned in your note.
Fine unusual posting and thanks for sharing this,
Have a good weekend,
Ivan

I wonder if there are any eatable parts of if they are nutrients or if they have medicinal values...so many questions and I'll bet science really doesn't know any of the answers ....yet..and I hope we survive long enough as a people to find out...Well seen from a remote location!

Hello Krzysztof,
From thumbnail I thought these are fungus. I was wrong. You are showing a fine close up. Sharp and well exposed image. Very well done.

Hello Krzys,
Wow, your research sounds really fascinating! Your note is most interesting and your images both interesting and beautiful. The size of this brown algae sounds very impressive. I'm a bit puzzled, have you been diving in Antarctis or how do you pursue your reaearch?
I like your sharp close-up of these algae showing shapes and colours very well.
Many thanks and have a nice weekend, Ulla

Hi Chris,
A nice capture of these brown algae. Lovely sharp details and a fine composition. I also like the WS where you have shown on what it is holding upon. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Chris, you have shown us something very interesting by way of life forms in the Antarctic region. I did benefit a great deal from your workshops. In fact they were needed in view of the technical descriptions and explanations in your erudite note for a layman like me :-).
All the three shots are technically superb and of very high educational value.

Hi Krzysztof,
Wonderful shot and you portray something which looks absolutely amazing. Beautiful Y shapes and they look delicate and sticky. Very neat and sharp image with nice colours and details. Superb light and exposure levels and I like your chosen POV to capture this scene. Very nicely composed. Kudos.

Hi Krzysztof,

excellent, excellent, this shot of a very unusual brown alga that few of us will ever see. I am glad that you tals about your first hand experiences in the Antarctic on TN. The holdfasts are clearly exhibited. Your competent comment makes the picture even more interesting.

Best regards
