Magic Lantern Slide: Flower Studies - Fescue grass
In this photographic slide William Weaver Baker has attempted to backlight the grass to emphasise its delicate structure. Unfortunately the image is over-exposed and some of the detail is lost. Weaver Baker was a keen amateur photographer and produced sets of slides on different themes, this slide being part of a set of 52 flower and plant images.
