Christmas Greetings from Sweden!

#1 Post by hkv » Sun Dec 17, 2017 8:13 pm

I have not posted much lately due to heavy workload, but I thought I would send a Christmas greeting to all of you from the land of Santa (Finnish citizens may disagree...). I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!

Found this Daphnia that must be one of Santa's little helpers. In Polarized light.

Same to you and all members. Also greetings to Oliver without whom this wouldn't be possible.

Obviously that Daphnia has no trouble going down the chimney but doesn't look like it can carry too many toys :D
