Explauatiou XXXIV. — White points. —Photograph takenby me in July 189s, in <strong>the</strong> country. <strong>The</strong> gamekeeper Crepetis giving to 300 young partridges some ant eggs, which heis taking from a sack. <strong>The</strong> small birds are covered over by<strong>the</strong> entire black part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> negative, v^hilst a quantity <strong>of</strong>small life animules are freeing <strong>the</strong>mselves from <strong>the</strong> eggs orfrom <strong>the</strong> ants. Is it <strong>the</strong> emanation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> gamekeeper, or that<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> partridges r I took two photos whilst <strong>the</strong> gamekeeperwas throwing'h<strong>and</strong>fuls<strong>of</strong> dust <strong>and</strong> <strong>of</strong> eggs. Both are identical.I took two o<strong>the</strong>r photos when he was giving <strong>the</strong>m cookedchicken eggs mixed with bread crumbs. In <strong>the</strong>se <strong>the</strong>re isnothing special, <strong>the</strong> photograph is sharp. It may be concludedfrom this, that <strong>the</strong> signature <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> life-animules <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>black volative odic shower come from he ants giving upt<strong>the</strong>ir vitality.
