Looking into the center of a dandelion clock/puff (Taraxicum sp., Asteraceae) through the canopy of parachutes.

Cladia aggregata

Found these guys swimming in a droplet of ocean water. There must have been a billion of them! This is at 1000x magnification, so you can imagine how amazingly tiny they are.

Polarised microscopy image. Taken with a 2.5x 0.06 lens.on an old Leitz Orthoplan via the trinocular head.

A filament of an unidentified organism. This filament, in spite of appearing as an empty skeleton, is motile. Magnified 400x. Collected from the yellow mud at the Weep Site, near Drawbridge, in the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Reserve.

I have had an idea to take photographs of the same diatom slide (a small arrangement) using various contrast techniques for comparison.

 

The photos are labelled A-K. I know what each was taken with. Techniques (in no particular order!) include;

 

dark-ground

phase contrast

Hoffman Modulation Contrast (HMC) (DIY)

DIC

oblique

bright-field

relief contrast (Leica, I think designed for inverted)

variable amplitude contrast (VAC)

 

All were taken with a x10 Plan Apo objective, apart from a couple eg. Phase which is a x10 Plan Fluor

 

All are stacked images of 7-11 individual images, and processing is minimal, and broadly the same.

Because I haven't had a chance lately to sit down and take some new microscopy photos, I've uploaded a few scraps here from old sessions.

Quite interesting close up.

2003 electron micrographs of an indian shell bead, taken while I was at Humboldt State University.

(Sadly, I don't have any further notes on the bead or it's origins handy...)

There are "fuzzy" heterogenous deposits in capillary walls located in bottom-center and bottom-right of micrograph. Mesangial & para-mesangial regions are expanded due to deposition of this substance
