Description

Two aeolosoma moving against one another, wet sample viewed under differential interference contrast with a 20x objective. A wet sample of aeolosoma was prepared on a glass slide and placed under the microscope set in differential interference contrast with a 20x objective. This image was created using a Nikon Ni-U microscope, with accompanying Nikon camera attachments and Nikon computer software to physically capture the image. Once the image was captured, it was post-processed using photo editing software, Adobe Photoshop and DaVinci Resolve.
