For this trip to CBI’s Scanning Electron Microscope I brought in a couple flakes of fish food hoping to see tiny bits of organic matter however preserved in the flat flake. This project is how I actually learned that fish food is only part finely powdered”fish-meal” with the rest of the concotion just being a soup of wheat, letchin, and water.
I opened with this and it was promising to have really interesting caves and craters to explore
But due to how thin and shallow the craters are they stop showing a lot of clarity. This was still incredibly insightful! The most fun part of this is using the controller that sets your framing and zooming, it’s a very different frame of mind than digital photography.
