Another photo of this passion plant.

Thanks, I hope we can have a little micro-fossil interest and photo`s at some point in time. But if the specimen can fit on the stage and focus to some degree we can look at it.
Warning, don`t crash an objective down on a hard rock.

Very nice image with photo shop, good reason led`s don`t evaporate the water as much, time is very important, wasted time is just wasted.

I may be able to obtain a little better photo of it and a few more. This old scope needs a little cleaning.

I just got around to it and took a few photos of several of these small shark teeth.
The longest one is 3 cm
Stereo scope x 7 mag.,, I have no idea of the age.

I have a lot of shark teeth I sifted out of the north east Florida coast several years ago, I was more interested in prehistoric mammal bones than the teeth, but interesting anyway.

Ah off topic in off topic,,, but plenty of ancient skulls can be found all over the internet and at many science and archaeological museums around the world, many of these, and new dedicated scientist continue to study the very distant past. What a trove of info we now have.

Very interesting, thanks for the photo`s. I would keep any super glue formulas away from microscope optics, because I have seen what cyanoacrylate formulas can do with some optical glass I was working with,,, as stated above, esp. if you have heat in that area even after the glue has set. What I und...

Speaking of organisms feeding inside plants, we have the pitcher plants growing in this part of the south but they are very much on the decline because of habitat destruction of mostly man made events. I took several samples of a little water located at the lower base of the pitcher plants and viewe...

We have several species of blister beetles in the humid south Georgia; I made one mistakes several years ago after handling a blister beetle around July etc., when I wiped the sweat off the top of my eye brow and the oil toxins migrated down into the top part of my eye from the continuous sweating. ...

Some extremely good details esp. the first one..

Thanks Bill and Apochronaut, thanks for the extra info apoch., I hope to have my microscopes out again at some point in time, we just got slammed by a cat. 1 hurricane Irma in the lower part of Georgia, what a mess around. We have the moon flowers and hawk moths also, the hawk moth larva seem to be ...

This is a camera close up shot of a species of a white lined sphinx moth larva as a later L 3 stage at aprox. 3.5 in. in length est.. They are often called humming bird moths as adults and are good pollinators for certain plants.. As adults moths I have yet to capture one in flight that was worth lo...

Looks like the ones we have, very nice images. Maybe after the storm I will dip a few up for comparison.

Really nice view of the damage.

Those are really nice, I like #1 and 3 the best; are those red spots in the first one some type of eye spots?
Rodney

Really a superb nice clear video.

Very nice and detailed dragonfly larvae, when I get a chance I will post one of ours. I can usually dip these out of the pond rather easily.

Was like a good cloud cover in my area, nothing to report back. Some had a lot better views.

I agree with beauty in the eye of the beholder.

I just took a quick photo of some wild berries and the plant section from our farm. I squashed up one of the little purple berries from the photo and it made a nice index finger print onto the paper which may not be all that visible from the camera. This is a wicked purple stain that does not wash o...

Those are really nice.

Those are nice sharp looking bubbles. I wonder if you created an almost perfect bubble in the lab, how well could you see it if at all with the microscope. I`m not sure how perfect a bubble could be.
Nice bubble images

Just my 2 cents, but no I don`t think it will take man species a long time to catch up with the rules of evolution, most likely a lot quicker. We have the means to destroy ourselves a lot quicker than the fish that crawled out onto the banks and eventually developed legs etc., etc., and without the ...

I forgot to mention the reason I purchased the C-5 was after the Sky & Telescope article "Measuring the Universe", dated October 1993. This article has test reviews of the new Celestron C-5. I`m not sure if you can pull these old issues up are not since I haven`t looked yet. Nice read about the univ...

For over 15 years I have been using my Celestron C-5. I generally use this scope more as a high powered and large spotting scope than for astronomical use, but this one will get you into the moon craters for sure. I hope they still make these scopes as good as the older ones but who knows. They were...

I took a good photo of the original post you made which has since been edited after it was made. I have nothing else to say.
Rodney

So it was just said in the last post from bill t. So my ?? is who are some of the ignorant people that mr. t continues to gripe about and complain about?? I think this type of post should be removed and never be allowed again. I have no doubt, no one should ever be called ignorant when they at least...

That`s a very good 2 image stack.
