The depth of the preparation (from the slide
to the cover slip) might be about 200
micrometres. Some things you see will not be
sharp. The round white objects are amoeba
spores. The small black sausage shaped and
blobby ones are bacterial cells. There is one
very small amoeboid organism in the picture
as well.

This is really impressive. The skeleton really has volume. I notice two
things: the bigger, white, round objects appear blurred; and the small,
black spots appear like they are splashing towards the edges. Artifacts
or reality depicted?
