I uploaded this to YouTube ages ago. Then life hit me like a ton of bricks, and I didn't even have the time or energy to upload this to peer tube and Lemmy. I'm back now though! And I have another video I'll post right after this.

Nikon Alphaphot 2 YS2 - wondering if good deal
https://i.imgur.com/x7SnwES.jpeg
I'm having some trouble finding a whole lot of info on this model, finding some stuff but is older so I get it. I've wanted an extra scope for a while now, something used that I can pack around to other people's houses when I take my friends out mushroom hunting and what not. Seller says everything is in working condition, looks like it was refurbished or serviced recently as there's a tag from optics company, not sure. For $150CAD I don't think its a bad deal but wondering what others think. Right now I am working with a swift 380T, I'll miss the phototube but I might actually be able to get a darkfield filter to work on this. ... read full post

Who's that microscopic animal?
I took this photo (and the sample) in the Adriatic Sea (Mljet, Croatia) on June 10th this year. The dinoflagellates I can identify to the genus. They are Tripos - correct me if I am wrong.
But I am not that good with animals. What is this thing on the left-hand side?

[Scott Manley | 25:32] Micron-scale X-Ray tomography (Putting Space Things In A CAT Scanner)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qhcDLMCM18Excerpt from video description:
LumaField make industrial X-Ray tomography machines AKA CAT Scanners, and I had an opportunity to drop by their office and put some artifacts into their scanners to look at their internals. Since their scanners boast resolutions in microns I wanted to given them something really challenging - the fiber matrix of heat shield tiles.

Cyanobacteria
This specimen came from a slimy film of algae that grew in one of my algal cultures. I think that it is a Nostoc. Objective is 40x/0.65

Plant stomata
This image was taken through the 100x oil objective and a 2x camera adapter projecting the image into a Nikon D7500. The sample is a leaf from one of my plants (Dioscorea elephantipes, but I don't think this picture would look very different for other plant species) ... read full post

Emerging trichome
This is a photograph of a small trichome on the surface of a seedling through the 40x objective. Not sure if it is a happy trichome looking up at what it will become or a sad trichome looking down 😆 I liked the colors and the scene, reminds me of a painting.
Here is a photo through the 10x:

Interesting flowery pattern
I left a slide with some algae and rotifers sitting on the microscope. After it dried up I was able to see several of these flower-like shapes. Not a pattern that I had seen before, and I a don't know what about the drying process lead to this particular shapes forming.
