I decided to look at some flowers that were growing outside my dorm. I chose one particular flower that was purple (although I am not sure exactly what kind of flower it was) and removed a petal. Using scissors, cut it into a smaller, more manageable size. I placed this piece onto a slide, added a drop of water, and placed a cover on top. Pictured is what I was able to view through my foldscope. I’m genuinely (but pleasantly!) surprised at how it came out, I did not expect the foldscope to be so powerful so as to be able to capture individual cells. All in all, a pretty cool sight to behold.
