Very nice DIC image. DIC really is a great illumination technique.

Thanks all for the kind comments. Yes, DIC is great. I have it installed all the time more or less. No need to stain anymore since DIC seems to get contrast even for bacterias. Great technique. However, fluorescence illumination still needs proper staining. DIC will not solve that.
