The forest floor on a rainy October day.
I switched a year ago to a calibrated IPS monitor for looking at these.
Some good fortune this morning, a railtour with heritage traction in the local area and was able to get it in sunshine! The Branch Line Society's 'The Ips Witch' heads down the Great Eastern Mainline at Manningtree, from the said town in Suffolk to East Midlands Parkway via London and Peterborough. This tour is one way as the objective is to get the rolling stock back to the Midlands, following its use for the GBRf staff charter from Ipswich to Paignton yesterday. Would be even better to see these locos in BR blue like they used to be, though without the GBRf tie-in the Saturday staff tour may have just been Class 66 hauled instead so can't grumble too much!

Do you know who lithographers are and know what they do? Not many do anymore...

A female of the European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (Coleoptera, Curculionidae Scolytinae)
Focus stack of 85 pictures
Microscope objective (Nikon M Plan 10x 160/0.25) on extension tubes.
iPS cells reprogrammed from a woman's skin. Blue shows nuclei. Green indicate a protein found in reprogrammed cells but not in skin cells (NANOG). The red dots show the inactivated X chromosomes in each cell. These cells can be matured into cells of the body, and used for studying models of disease.
The image was taken in the laboratory of Kathrin Plath at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Sottopixels di una matrice AH-IPS del monitor TV M2352D della LG. Gli artefatti sono dovuti a bolle formatesi tra il pannello e il nastro adesivo utilizzato per contrastare l'effetto dello strato antiriflesso del monitor.
Subpixels of an AH-IPS matrix of LG's TV monitor M2352D. The artifacts are due to bubbles formed between the panel and the packing tape used to counteract the effects of the anti-glare coating.

Adult-like cardiac tissue engineered from human pluripotent stem cells contains transverse tubules, the hallmark of maturity, seen in immunofluorescent images. Researchers are now able to use induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) to form a model of human adult-like cardiac muscle by introducing electric and mechanical stimulation at an early stage. Since this muscle is similar to the adult heart, it could serve as a better model for testing the effects of drugs and toxic substances than current tissue-engineered heart models.
