Concept: To create images similar to the ‘Beyond Drifting’ series by Mandy Barker using items that I have found. I will place the lens of my camera over the eyepiece of the microscope giving the same circle effect that Mandy Barker uses to present her images.

Lighting: The microscope has a built in light underneath the stage which will serve to illuminate the objects only.

Props: I will use a normal light microscope borrowed from the science department of my school. The microscope will not have a graticule so as to not distract the viewer from the details in the pollutes. The magnifications that come with the microscope are 4x, 10x and 40x.

Camera Settings: I will lower the exposure in-camera so the details of the objects are more visible
