Cyclops
I found this Cyclops in some pond water in South Bend. The red eye is near the bottom, although it was not in the focal plane. I used some methyl cellulose to slow the creature down for the photo.
Photographed using a Bausch & Lomb biological microscope with a Baush & Lomb Phase Contrast condenser. Leica MIKAS microscope adapter with a 2/3X reducer, 10X objective and a 10X eyepiece.
