MicrobeHunter.com Microscopy Forum

Hi! My name is Jonas and I've always been curious about most things in nature. I recently picked up microscopy as a hobby. I've used some toy microscopes as a kid but I recently got an Amscope B120C, it's like I've entered a whole new world

Welcome to the forum, Jonas!
tervetuloa foorumille!

You’ve just made a marvelous statement about entering a whole new world! Indeed you did! But what world did you enter? What is it you are examining and twisting you eyes and mind around?

Thanks! Ciliates, flagellates, algae, bacteria, worms, crustaceans you name it! There's so much to explore. Right now protists in general seem the most interesting. I've never given them much thought before I got a microscope. They're everywhere

I am pleased that you are sharing the amazement of the wonders of the hidden world of the microcosmos. What you mention is very immediately rewarding. Do not forget about bacteriae and tissue sections. These demand a bit more knowledge, but are incredibly exciting!
I wish you luck and prosperity in your coming endeavour to light up the hidden pathways of the microcosmos!
