Holly watching

Screen shot from 'Eye' (2012). Filmed with USB microscope.

Spider photos and microscope images


Screen shot from 'Spiderweb' (2012).


  Dark field project (2011) - because the spider had been dead for quite a while at this point its body had dried out.  As a result the body of the spider was slightly hollow and transparent. This feature of the dead spider provided us with an interesting aspect to play with in fluorescent microscopy. 


Screen shot from 'Dead Spider' (2012). This microscopic image is of the mouth of a dead spider.


Photograph from the project 'George' (2012). This microscopic image is of the eyes of a live spider.


From the dark field project (2011). Photograph of me trying to pull apart the body of the spider under the light of a torch looking through the microscope.  


Dark field project (2011) - this photo was taken with a DSLR camera looking through the microscope. I played with the same method to take the next six photos.
