Very nice.
Did you also take some photos with another form of illumination?
I find the comparison of different techniques on the same subject interesting.

Seb,
What lighting did you use? Did you use UV light and a dark-field filter? I tried it with blue light LEDs but without much success. The wavelength was, evidently, not correct.
Thanks,
Oliver.

The Zeiss photomicroscope have a fluorescence condenser with filters and dichronic mirrors for observing in Ultar violet,violet,blue and green excitation light.I use it with 10w LED or 60w 12V bulb.

Thanks for the alternate image. It provides a very good illumination comparison.
I use it with 10w LED or 60w 12V bulb.
Am trying to convert my Zeiss 60w Illuminator to led at the moment (forced conversion - it is missing some parts and not working),
can you provide details: photos/drawings etc... + comments on how it compares to the 60w bulb? Thanks
