Edward Quinto Photo Gallery 2

“A World Illuminated by Bioluminescence”

This 2nd gallery is a collection of photos of various objects viewed
in a different light – the light of Bioluminescence. It was made
during the dark minutes of Earth Hour 28.03.2010 under a clear
western sky dominated by the stars of the Winter Triangle:
Sirius, Procyon and Betelgeuse.

Time-coursed pouring of a bioluminescent liquid into a beaker

 A cloth bag illuminated from within by bioluminescent plate cultures

Bioluminescence highlighting the green practice: reduce, reuse and recycle

Kudos to the UST Biology Society for promoting the use of the white cloth bag

A glass slant bearing an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary carrying Baby Jesus
illuminated by 3 bioluminescent plate cultures from behind
 A hand-grasped beaker of bioluminescent liquid

A heart-shaped culture of the bioluminescent marine bacterium: Vibrio fischeri

shining brightly inside a petri dish
A happy-faced culture of the bioluminescent marine bacterium: Vibrio fischeri
shining brightly inside a petri dish

Four Bioluminescent pads of the pointing finger to the little finger

A streaked plate culture of the bioluminescent marine bacterium: Vibrio fischeri

Two bright bioluminescent plate cultures resting on a table

 Two bioluminescent plate cultures illuminating brightly the pages of a book

Possibility of reading a book in the dark with two luminous plate cultures shining
brightly in the dark for one to two days
Pictures on the pages of a book become visible with just one or two brightly shining
bioluminescent plate cultures

The silhoutte of a dragon illuminated by bioluminescent plate cultures from behind

 The dragon’s lower jaw, horns and belly illuminated from behind by two
bioluminescent plate cultures

The jade dragon illuminated frontally by two bioluminescent plate cultures

A yellow plastic grocery bag of SM illuminated from inside by two bioluminescent
plate cultures

A transparent blue plastic bag wrapping two bioluminescent plate cultures

The world’s first bioluminescence illuminated Christmas Tree complete with orange
metallic Christmas balls

A gift-bearing Santa Claus with a glass belly containing a shining blue

liquid of bioluminescence
A bioluminescent Christmas Tree with luminous liquid drippings at its base

A small angel figurine sitting atop a bioluminescent plate culture

Bottled water containing a bioluminescent liquid with its round luminous body and
an opaque blue cap appearing like a planet about to eclipse a blue star

Same as the photo above, with the blue cap producing an “annular eclipse” visual
effect against the body of a bottled water containg a bioluminescent liquid
 Bioluminescent liquid in a plastic container and in a beaker

Bioluminescence in liquid form inside an Erlenmeyer flask and in a petri dish

Glimmering bioluminescence like the “Auroras” inside test tubes

Stable and strong bioluminescence inside test tubes

A bioluminescent plate culture set against the lit slit of an almost closed door

A plate culture set against the bright slit of a partially opened door
 A bioluminescent liquid in an Erlenmyer Flask

The Bioluminescent Christmas Tree from afar in the dark
