This is really neat - is this a common set-up for shooting through a microscope?

![]() ![]() By the way, here is another shot of the spore mass of a plasmodial slime mold. These spores are about 10 microns in size at the most. ![]() Last edited by Ken Ramos; Feb 4, 2016 at 12:53 PM. Reason: added info |

Having tried this myself I can really appreciate what you have accomplished here. Great lighting. Most of my shots suffered from strong backllight and not enough light from above.

For a dissecting or stereo microscope, a 150W cold blue fiber optic halogen works well for above stage illumination and produces some really great results as far as lighting goes and an ever bigger plus is the utilization of the Zern Stacker program for some really detailed work. ![]() |

Your shot of the spore mass of a spasmodial slime mold would make a good book cover. Looking forward to seeing more of your shots. If I can make a request Id like to see a spirogyro and a paramecium.
