Think Like a Diatom

I did the line work on this graphic for the North American Diatom Symposium (NADS).  Dennis Vander Meer designed the original concept. 

North American Diatom Symposium - Iowa Lakeside Lab 2009

Here's a diatom definition that I found online; I make no claims about its accuracy:  Diatoms are aquatic, single-celled algae (photosynthetic organisms) which possess a hard shell.

I didn't think to ask before now, but Dennis said that the name of the diatom is Reimeria uniseriata, which was named after Charlie Reimer, the man in the drawing.

I like the logo...it's very meaningful..especially after finding out the name of the diatom.
