Hi,Greetings from Ireland

[chrisskee]

Just quick introduction.
I have been following forum for a few years and finally decided to join.I am very impressed with the knowledge represented by the members of the forum and all the help and advice given to less experienced in such complicated subject as microscopy and different technique used in the field of microscopy.
I am fascinated with nature and microscopy since primary school but only a last few years I owe microscope and I am able to fathom the secrets of micro-life.Thanks for shearing your knowledge ,I know that always I can ask for help and advice.
Sorry for my english,English is not my first language
Greetings

Welcome chrisskee

You seem to be doing fine!

Particularly like the second image - Tardigrade egg or Rotifer cyst?

[chrisskee]

second picture-parasite tapeworm egg with hooks ,uses to attach itself to the wall of the small bowel of animal,can affect human but dont know exact species,this one probably from rat

Thanks. I see now that you did in fact add information to each image.

Those are great pics Chris, thanks for sharing. What stain did you use for the blood smear?

[chrisskee]

Thanks .
May-Grünwald Giemsa stain.I think this is the best stain to stain blood films.

Very good images, especially for the magnification implied due to their displayed size.

Most of them seem to have a slight inverted 3-D quality to them. They show some relief but it seems inverted. Is that by chance or did you use a condenser offset or some other technique?

Welcome, Chris, and thanks for the images you share. Your blood smears seem excellent to me! Here in finger lakes/US we are getting ready for our cornbeef,cabbage St.Patricks day traditional feast...yummy.Again, I am impressed with the even balanced illumination and balanced stain colors across the entire blood film images you post here, great technique!

thanks and welcome, Charlie guevara
