Microbiology - rotifer at 500x
by vtruan

Comment by vtruan:
Thanks for the comments.

I got out the ole Coolpix. Stuck the lens of the Coolpix up to a microscope eye piece with a rotifer focused. re-adjusted the focus of the rotifer with microscope and shot the camera, after zoomed the camera lens to avoid the round circle of microscope eye piece. There was some movement because I was shooting at 1/4 of a second, without a camera adaptor. I've been experiment more and have mastered motion by shooting at 400ASA and backing off the zooming. Am having lots of fun shooting algae, diatoms, amebas, and other wee little critters.

I like the tuft of cotton above the wood. Nice sky and interesting tree.

This is an interesting picture, with the way they're surrounding the vehicle. It makes me linger, trying to figure out what's going on. Good job on the B&W.

How long did you have to wait for a cloud to park itself right above that tree? Might have liked this better with the whole composition shifted to the side instead of centered, but nice timing.

6 - Really like the tree capture, especially with that cloud above, but the empty space reduced at the top (in camera, who knows) would have made a much stronger image, in my opinion.
