Wet [magnified] (2023), microscopic images and timelapse photography of Sphagnum moss.
A selection of microscopic images taken as part of Caroline’s long-term project Speaking Sphagnum. The images magnify Sphagnum moss' intricate cellular structure - an intricate weave of small, green, photosynthesising cells (chlorophyllose) and large, clear, dead cells (hyaline). The images were taken under white, infrared, and UV light.
With special thanks to the Dunn School of Pathology, University of Oxford for the generous use of their microscopic facilities.
