I provide a Voynich depiction of a plant and modern photograph of a rainforest plant. Are they, or are they not, the same plant?

If you go to the blog of Ivan Mikolji (the photographer), he explains that this is not a plant but two individuals from a colony of protozoans, Ophrydium versatile.
It is utterly impossible for protozoans to grow "a little green bud that offers every potential of blossoming into a flower."
Protozoans are single cell organisms.
They have zero potential of blossoming into a flower.
They don't have stems or tendrils or buds.
Here are some more pictures of Ophrydium versatile:


What is shown in Ivan Mikolji's photo cannot be described as a "rainforest plant": Ophrydium versatile can be found in freshwaters all over the world, in all climates. Also, just for the sake of accuracy, they are not plants.

So actually, EVEN if we were to consider the possibility that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. shows a protozoan ON an aquatic plant, as in the photograph below, this would not point towards a Venezuelan "rainforest" origin.

Thanks. I found the photographer's comment about this:

Hi Everybody, 
I have a very curious anecdote to share; I know you will find quite interesting. 
I sold a stock image some time ago and by coincidence found where it wound up. Supposedly I took an image of an extraterrestrial life form!  Can any of you identify the green alien?

A while later after posting the image on facebbok, a facebook friend called Lucien Bal wrote to me. "Is it possible, that it's not a plant but a colony of protozoa growing on a plant ? A colony of protozoans likeOphrydium versatile ? "
 
Right then, I found out that like most of us... I was still a photographer from this world.

At the time I acquired a license for it, he described it as freshwater plant from the Morichal district of Venezuela. The bud, however, was in the photograph. I did not put it there.  So I plan to leave the photo on my site until someone can convince me that the bud is not there.
