7/17, Thursday. Seattle Aquarium hosts a booth at Pier 62 for
Sea You At The Waterfront, quite a few days this summer.
I stopped by this Thursday to check out what is it about.
2-3 (very) young employees, showing anyone who's interested to pop in.
2 bottles with different mesh in the water to fetch sample.
Squeeze a few drop of that water on a plate to view plankton at a nice compact microscope.
Saw many chains of diatons. One jelly fish like little bubble, who moves around.
All displayed on the flat screen monitor, which is nice and easy to see, but too dim to show up on my photo.
One unexpected obstacle is wind, which blows the water away from the focus area.

This same evening, Glazier's had an open house for the
Analog Week.
This lady proudly showed up her collection of miniature cameras.
One (top left) can take 4 sequential shots.
I was surprised to see a large turn out: so many people are still taking film photos.
