This is a Victorian era student microscope which used to belong to my grandfather, who purchased it second-hand many years ago. It was created by Broadhurst, Clarkson & Company, who were resident at 63 Farringdon Road in London during the mid to late 1800s and were manufacturers of fine quality instruments to the gentry and scientific community.
The body of the microscope is made from brass; it's a lovely old thing and a lot of fun to use...especially because its box was packed with a range of vintage slides from the early 1900s. These beautiful objects have now been superceded by modern technology, but they remain very usable instruments which symbolise an exciting and important time for science.
First commercial high school experiment on U.S. National Lab on Space Station.
This is an actual photo image taken by a small digital camera in the VCS 2010-11 NanoLab project aboard the ISS.
The image is of VCS plant incubation chamber. The similar images on the left and right are the side views of these plant chambers provided by two different angled mirrors to the left and right sides of the plant chambers.
The plants that were being grown included Marigolds and Wisconsin Fast Plants

McKissick Museum and the A. C. Moore Herbarium, from the University of South Carolina, teamed up with faculty at A. C. Moore School, in Columbia, to develop a display on the life and academic background of the school's (and herbarium's) namesake, Andrew Charles Moore. Moore was a native South Carolinian, and an undergraduate at USC, then involved in graduate studies at the University of Chicago. He returned to Columbia, and served on the faculty of the brand-new Department of Biology, and as its first Chair. He started the herbarium in 1907, and is credited with the first scientific publication using the term "meiosis" in its modern biological context. He served as President of the University for 2 one-year terms, and championed public education in Columbia. He died (within what is now Lieber College, on USC's Horseshoe) in 1928. A new elementary school was built in 1930, and it bears his name.

An interesting look at everyday things.
I bought a cheap USB powered Microscope and then started exploring. Some of the images were very unexpected so I thought I would post a few.

Taken with a Microscope and attached DSLR camera... I made them into HDR's but otherwise did not feel like editing them. Sorry.
Microscope slides in a brown box made of thick paper material with small metal pieces on each edge around the four sides. One edge is splitting, and some others are bending and folding inward. Centered on the top is a logo. There is a wide diamond symbol with "Diamond Brand Slides Covers" around the edges and "JMF" in cursive script at the center. Inside are many glass slides as well as a piece of paper at the bottom that says, "Non-Corroseive Micro Slides / Made in U.S.A."

Rainy day so I thought I would take some pictures of a Zeiss Phase Contrast Microscope that we bought for our daughter when she was in school. She is a research scientist now so I guess it was a good purchase.
Egads! I've uploaded very little in February!
So here this is!
New camera! Better quality shots now!
Also, video!

30 seconds exposure time to visualize the amoeba's movement.
Taken in polarized light with phase contrast. Size of the amoeba is about 70 micrometers.
From the photographer:
This is a portion of human skin taken with an iPhone from Apple applied to an Olympus microscope. The magnification is 400x.
There is a hair follicle surface surrounded by basket-woven cornified layer and topped by erythrocytes (from hemorrhage derived from the surgical procedure).
The difficult part of taking the photomicrograph is aligning the lens of the iPhone to the eyepiece of the microscope and getting the right image size and the most uniform lighting. An adapter is in the works in my excited mind.
This is an unedited picture. A greenish tinge, easily edited out, is seen in this rendition but not on the screen of the iPhone.
The surprising thing is the incredible quality of the iPhone lens, as able to focus so close to the surface of the ocular as to do snapshot from afar subjects. This opens the possibility for pathologists to share biopsy images and collaborate on diagnoses on the phone. What do you think?
