PHOTOGRAPHING FISH 113 



graphing any of the jellyfish or other floating forms 

 of animal life, the same thing could be done to pre- 

 vent their coming in contact with the glass. 



Any of the lower forms of aquatic animal life 

 may be more or less easily photographed, and in 

 every instance it is best that they should be portrayed 

 with accessories that are natural to them. It is as- 

 tonishing that such an interesting branch of photog- 

 raphy should so long have remained untouched. 

 The possibilities are almost unlimited. The exquisite 

 forms of plant life and the long list of animal life 

 offer subjects as novel as they are beautiful; and the 

 ease with which these pictures may be made once 

 the first few difficulties are overcome will astonish 

 any one entering this almost untrodden field.
