Great images!
Itâs also fun to look at kitchen stuff, like if you have steel cut oats, quick oats, rolled oats, oat bran. Rice is cool. Spice mixtures, different types of salt.
But thanks for sharing these, I love them.
In a similar vein, cuts are fun to image over time
You are aware that sounds⌠creepy⌠arenât you? 
Nope - didnât read it out loud and was a bit distracted by a scab on my arm, so was wishing I had a scope to play with right nowâŚ
I would say youâre a person after my own heart, but that sounds even more disturbing. Actually thatâs a reason I should say it.
In another vein I suspect the magnification isnât great enough to see amoebas or other fun critters in pond water. I do wish I still had access to a creek where I thought Iâd found planaria but which turned out to be leeches. Those would be fun to watch under the microscope.
Ah, yes it is. I was going to say, I need one of these I think. I wanted to blow some big money and get one of those binocular microscopes that I always wanted for my kid. But these new images have me sold. That it is worth $35 and then some.
I had a microscope but the highest power never worked well. But the lower powers (50x -75x?) were enough to see rotifers attached to algae âhairâ quite well. Amoebas might be too small (and clear) but there are a lot of other critters you can see. I think I saw a paramecium once.
Have you seen any Midi-chlorians?
I donât know any Jedi.
Obligatory
When shopping for usb microscopes I unwittingly learned that uploading videos of your sperm onto YouTube is apparently a thing.
