Botanical sections

#1 Post by Manfred » Wed Oct 26, 2016 8:30 pm

Dear all,

I want to start today posting stem sections, and I want to add again and again sections I`ll do the next time.
Everyone of you is invited to upload his botanical sections in this thread, so we will have a large pool of images showing different plants.

Fantastic images, Manfred

Nice idea.


Here are some of my daffodyl ovaries. This was my first section, so stitched the lot.

Taken at x100, NA 0.2. 10micron section stained with saffarinin and fast green.

Manfred, what are the plants? Second image is very good-a very thin section. What technique do you use?

That is a very good section of something as small as a pine needle.

Manfred, excellent sections and very beautiful images (sharpness, detail and color), as usual.
billben, nice images but I think the contrast is rather low (I, for one, would prefer higher contrast).
