All great images! I think I like the first one the best.
I take it you did a lot of image editing to eliminate background clutter? I think it does help the viewer to concentrate on the image.
Great to see another 4 series user, too.

Yes, I should have mentioned that I cleaned things up. I am shooting these on strew slides, so it seems there is always a bit clutter that I can do without, so I take care of it.
My 4 stand is the only one I have with Apo optics, so I tend to choose it for brightfield and oblique images. I really enjoy using it, and the results it produces. I have noticed the list in your signature, great looking line up!
Thanks for your interest.

Re: Oamaru IV
more really lovely images!
I see that they are numbered, is this part of a future ID project? Web page ... book?

The non-uniform ornamentation pattern of the diatoms in the 2nd and 3rd images is intriguing: are the tiny holes blocked? by a calcareous precipitate?

The numbering is another go at organizing the images on my hard drive, no larger plan to clutter the world with my attempts at imaging.

Regarding the tri-lobed diatom, which I believe to be Triceratium, I have found references that show that non uniform pattern, so I believe that is just the way it formed. I does seem a bit unusual compared to the highly organized, symetric patterns we see in a lot of diatoms.
Thanks for the interest and comment.

You sure these weren't made by ancient Egyptians or Chinese?
