A Copepod from the bird bath, under cross polarised light.

Ooh, nice picture!

I have a set of polarizers on the way and hopefully some nice things to use them on.

Thanks for the kind remarks.

It is a long way from your beautiful images of Cyclops Jacek. I tried this in DIC and brightfield but the cross polarised version turned out best.

Cyclops in DIC do not even try.
DIC is not very suitable for stacks of crustaceans.
At least I can not do it.
