Little Black Fish ماهي سياه كوچولو
I am going to switch to some other topics in the coming weeks and this is the last photomicrograph that I am posting for now. Maybe in the future, I continue posting MicroArts. I know you may find this one very different from the others and also you may don’t like it at all. But there is a story behind it which makes this picture very special to me. The black opaque mineral is Iron Oxide (namely Hematite) which the corrosion in its rim made this crystal to look like a small fish. I found this little black fish when I studied some volcanic rocks from Central Iran. This iron crystal suddenly reminds me of the book that my Mom used to read it to me when I was a kid. The book is called “The Little Black Fish” by the famous Persian writer Samad Behrangi. I frequently asked my Mom to read the book for me and each time at the end of the story I cried for the little black fish. This also happened when I start reading the book myself when I was in primary school. You won’t believe this that I start crying in the laboratory first time I saw this mineral under the microscope.

بدم. شايد در آينده بازهم عكسهاي ميكروسكپي پست كردم. مي‌دونم كه اين عكس با عكسهاي قبلي خيلي تفاوت ميكنه و مطمئن هستم كه خيلي از شماها از اون خوشتون نمياد ولي داستاني كه پشت اين عكس هستش اون رو براي من به يك عكس ويژه تبديل كرده. كاني تيره رنگي كه در تصوير مي‌بينيد يك بلور اكسيد آهن (به طور مشخص، هماتيت) هستش كه برخي از سطوح اون دچار خوردگي شده و به شكل يك ماهي كوچك درآمده. اين ماهي سياه كوچولو رو وقتي پيدا كردم كه داشتم يك سري سنگ آتشفشاني مربوط به ايران مركزي رو مطالعه ميكردم. اين بلور من رو به ياد كتابي انداخت كه در بچگي مادرم برام مي‌خوند. كتاب ماهي سياه كوچولو نوشته صمد بهرنگي. يادم مياد كه من دائماً از مادرم مي‌خواستم اين كتاب رو براي من بخونه و هر بار در آخر كتاب من براي ماهي سياه كوچولو گريه ميكردم، اين اتفاق حتي وقتي كه در دوره دبستان خودم كتاب رو مي‌خوندم ميافتاد. باورتون نميشه وقتي اين بلور رو توي آزمايشگاه در زير ميكروسكوپ ديدم بي اختيار زدم زير گريه. اگر دوست داشتيد اين كتاب رو بخونيد اينجا رو كليك كنيد.

In some ways I can relate to the story behind this Arash.
So many times you can see a image in nature that brings back fond memories from the past, such as you have here.
I will read that story within the coming day or two.
Thank you Arash!

واقعاً محشره، من رو هم برد تو حال و هوای ماهی سیاه کوچولو و نشستم دوباره داستانش رو خوندم
Samad was not a "persian" writer.
“Little Black Fish” reminds me one of my best memorable moments in grade two. On that day, our teacher dedicated almost the whole time of a session to reading this magnificent piece for her students. When she was reading the book for the class, nobody could hesitate following the story. Bell was already rung, but the students were still on their seats and wiping the tears off their faces.
Good luck, and hope to have more inspiring pictures on your website,
Cheers,
