photomicrographs

photomicrographs
   A photograph made through a compound microscope and may be a greatly enlarged image of a small area. A similarly enlarged photograph may be prepared with only a lens of very short focal length and is accurately termed a photomacrograph. It is extremely difficult to distinguish between photographs made by the two processes, and both are often incorrectly referred to as a photomicrograph.
