House Dust
This is a general field of view from a house dust tapelift.
The little circles with crosses are starch grains. The flat
colored particle just right and above center is from cosmetics. Most of the white
fibers are paper fibers. The flat colorless particles are primarily
human skin flakes. There is one glass fiber halfway to the left edge from center.
