alga

#1 Post by 75RR » Mon Dec 29, 2014 7:53 pm

10x and 16x objectives, 50 and 55µm, Darkfield, Offset Darkfield Stop and Oblique Stop, 4,6,8 and 22 image stacks.
May have overcooked the 2nd and 4th one a bit. Think the third photo might include an oogonia. It looks "reproductive".
Was taking photos of these algae when I ran across the Limnias melicerta.

Nice. I really like how offset and oblique add a 3D look.

Very nice. I have a hard time choosing a favorite-- they are all good.

Those are so vivid and sharp! Hats off. They say the human eye is particularly sensitive to green ... maybe that's why algae make such photogenic models.

Inasmuch as 75RR's gorgeous images above were posted 3 months ago, I hope that the new, well-deserved comments will encourage him to post some more images soon :) .
