Fish

A shape of the fish scale is like a shell. Most of the scale is transparent, but there are some star-shaped dots. Interesting observation is that there are two different patterns of the scaly textures.

Star-Shaped Dots

The pictures are focused on the star-shaped dots. These dots are located without any organization.

Image	Data	Description
	100x	The size of the star-shaped dots are not consistent. There are sharp sparks on the edge. These sparks are also transparent.
	400x	An area where the star-shaped dots are located has scaly texture. The texture is the same as one on the main part of the scale.

Scaley Texture

Fish's scale have scaly texture on it. It is hard to discover the scaly texture, because the color of the scale is transparent.

Image	Data	Description
	200x	The pattern of the scaly texture is vertical in this picture. The size of the line is not exactly the same, and a few lines seem to be broken.
	200x	Even though the camera is not moved or turned at all, the scaly texture appears different than the one above. The pattern is horizontal, and the size of the line is also not same.
	100x	Division lines are laid horizontally. These lines divide the vertical pattern of the lines.

Sparks

There are the sparks on the edges of the part, where the star-shaped dots are found. These sparks are transparent, and is a size of star-shaped dots. These sparks seem to be used to connect the scales one another.

Image	Data	Description
	200x	The edge looks like a chain. The sparks are located around the edge, and their size is not exactly the same.
