This leaf specimen was found in a grass field next to Jadwin Hall at Princeton University and was extremely tiny; the whole leaf was put under the scope. This specimen was most likely be a common broadleaf weed species, perhaps carpetweed. Although the picture was blurry, with a lot of light directly from the iPhone flashlight, viewing it under the scope you were able to see some of the individual chloroplast cells. The camera unfortunately was not able to focus on the cells and made the photo blurry which was was probably due to the leaf being slightly too thick for the scope.
