Dear cyanobacteria,
I just want to thank you for all the free oxygen and food you provided when you threw that epic oxygenation party 2.4 billion years ago. Your friend, Mr. binsrc

@design_RG nice to meet you. That is a creative commons image, I'll have to find the link (I've just failed scientific communication 101 haven't I). As soon as I can photograph some of my own I will be certain to share the results of those too.
@binsrc Nice to meet you too!
The image is very pretty, but I had in mind some information link(s) about the cyanobacteria, and the great blooming you mentioned.
Not familiar with them much, would be nice to learn. TY!
@design_RG cyanobacteria is a photosynthetic bacteria and one of the earliest lifeforms on earth. It is also known as blue-green algae, but it's not really an algae.
