plant stem under microscope

[mr micro]

hello guys

this images was taken of parsley stem at 56x magnification
with my lomo biolam.
you can clearly see the vascular bundles , xylem,phloem, ( it took me some effort to make that thin ts section )



thanks

Quite nice. Do you have any stills of the stem?

thanks jimT , i have about 5 photos but all at 56x . i thought 315x would be too much .

this one is good :



thanks

That is very good!... I don't feel that 315x would be too much.. You could crop the photo to show an interesting section.. What did you slice this with, if I might ask?....

"i sliced with just a normal really sharp razer blade ."

Here is a link to a simple precise "slicer".. I have never tried it, but it looks to be rather straight forward..
