A plate I created for David Paton's tome on the Coorong and Lower Lakes "At the End of the River". The reality is that what happens upstream has a direct impact upon these critters at the end of the Murray Darling river basin. As most of us go about our daily routine consuming food and waters form the river system spare a though for the impact downstream… most of us don’t even know these critters exists or what they do… in fact scientists are still trying to answer these questions… interested? Find a copy of “At the End of the River” and add a slice of reality to your world. Enjoy the images! http://atfpress.com/atf-press/at-the-end-of-the-river.html The images were taken with a modified Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 coupled with an Olympus dissecting microscope. Multiple depths of field were combined using Helicon Focus and post production was completed in Photoshop CS2.
