Melting iceberg - abstract photomicrograph
Tiny Worlds collection: a photomicrograph of crystals created from the urine of a snow leopard. This species and the icebergs are all highly endangered. The sample was collected for routine clinical health screening. After testing instead of discarding the sample immediately I put a drop of it on a microscope slide and allow it to dry. As it dries, crystals precipitate into intricate patterns. Placed under a microscope using a specialized polarizing apparatus to add colors to the normally colorless crystals I can adjust the filters to change the colors.
