"As soon as I got the microscope, I became more and more interested in the microscopic world and this hobby did not disappear. I want to show people how unimaginably this world is visually interesting. My friends and relatives really like what I do, they are always excited to watch videos, " Savitsky said.

"I took the creatures and materials from rivers and lakes. I tried to collect water with mud and algae because there are more microorganisms living there. I found this worm in the mud," he said.
