I work for a water utility an am able to spend time looking for algae and diatoms from our raw water sources. I use a Nikon Optiphot with Hoffman Modulation Contrast.
I found this site while looking for a photo on google images and was directed here. I would like to get help from all the experts here on identifacation of organisms.
I have some favorite photos I've taken. Here is one of Diatoma that shows how the valves come together
