Birch catkins taken in macro photography and under the microscope as well as buds, seeds also called achene and pollen.
Hello everyone,
I share with you birch catkins taken in macro photography and under the microscope as well as buds, seeds also called achene and pollen.
Some site references about birch:
Birch in general: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch
The kitten (in french) : http://www.biopathe.fr/articles.php?lng=fr&pg=371
The seed also called the achene or the samara (in french) : http://a.gerard4.free.fr/microscopie/ph ... raine.html
Birch pollen (a photograph of a grain of pollen under an electron microscope): https://www.pollens.fr/le-reseau/les-pollens/bouleau
The kitten in macro rate of 1/1.2 : The kitten in macro rate of 1/1: A detail of the kitten under the microscope at 4x:
A detail of one end of the kitten under the microscope at 4x plus a Barlow of x2:
The blade of the skinned kitten:
There is a lot of life in a kitten !
Here is a video that shows small white worms walking around in a kitten : https://youtu.be/2EZo-AJ6YbM

Buds in macro at the rate of 1/1 : Bud under the microscope with the 4x objective: Small white worms at the base of the bud in the photo above - Watch the video below * : Section of a bud under the microscope with the 4x objective:
* There is also plenty of life in a bud!

The seed also called achene under the microscope 4x (seeds recovered from my white car: it helps ) :
The blade with 5 seeds: Under the microscope 10x transmitted light: Under the microscope 10x transmitted and reflected light: Under the microscope 40x transmitted and reflected light: . . .

and finally the birch pollen :
Pollen grains under the microscope 40x montage with Barlow 3x: Pollen grains under the microscope 100x montage with Barlow 3x:
Aaaaaaah, this microscopic world is full of surprises. I think the biomass that you can't see with the naked eye is much more important than what you see. To be confirm . . .

A great set of images, Frank … thanks for sharing them.
I was instantly reminded of a great photograph by Otto Croy, which is probably what started my interest in macro.
