Honourable mentions included videos of the Cyerce kikutarobabai sea slug, Penicillium venetum fungus growth, MSG crystal formation, and bioluminescent tropical phytoplankton. Pleyer used glycerol to fix phytoplankton in place and electric charge to trigger their glow while filming at high magnification.

“The biggest problem with this bioluminescent reaction is how to trigger it and to at the same time get a clear shot.”
