Hi,

I have recently been playing around with an old microscope and have taken a peek at some blood under it.

I was trying to find some sort of guide on the web to help me identify the various cells in your blood. However I couldn’t find anything which looked like something I spotted under the microscope.

These are irregular shaped and had a darker (almost purple) outline and a seemingly translucent ‘body’ I tried taking a few snaps (take a look at the attachment) – apologies for the poor quality and the colour reproduction sin’t brilliant – I just held my camera up to the eye piece..

I’m intrigued!

Thanks!
