A relatively quick update today. It is always nice to see my work getting recognized. Another of my diatom microscope images has been selected as the September 2023 cover image for the site amateurmicrography.net. It an Actinoptychus heliopelta diatom taken using 450nm light on my Olympus BHB microscope. Here’s the image.

The Amateur Micrography page links through to the Photomacrography forum which has some of the best macro and micro imagers from around the world. It is full of useful advice on setups and techniques, and is well worth checking out if you have a minute.
