Still searching for a selection where every image is a much needed word in the story. With these 10 it is becoming close. A sentence about a hyper real view on the world, where a small change like eliminating reflections and shadows will give an uncertain unknown feeling when looking at these images while covering multiple topics like the quest of photography in capturing the world within its own universum.

Cross polarized sugar water solution. I find that for sugar water to crystallize, it needs to be forced to evaporate under a 100 watt bulb.

Been spraying a Magnesium sulfate solution on glass slides. Isolating interesting droplets after evaporation for further photographic study. All images captured at 2X.
