Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful microscopic pictures. I would love to see the microscope view of Water. How it seems when its picture is taken from a very close point.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoying them! We will have to take a look at some water, especially since our little microscope is capable of video!

It is microscopic photography!

Damn, things look beautiful close up

Right? You wouldn't think, but things are amazing under such magnification!

Awesome. What kind of equipment do you use to take those?

Would be nice to see some other chips/microelectronic parts.

Right now we have a little digital microscope purchased from an online site, but maybe we will upgrade our brandless one to something with a little more umph!
Good news! Next week we can probably feature just that! We have some new computer parts coming in!

very ancient coin.

Artwork is such an astounding thing to witness day in and day out. Quiet enjoyable.

Love the imagery. Very interesting. Thanks for the share.
Really dig the majestic stars, the rainbow metallic, and the cut stones.
