Very nice detail in both of these Franz. I wish I knew more about what I was looking at. The IQ is so good though, I can see the surface of it's shell. Are these stacks?

Hello Mitch640,

these are not stacks because living Medusae have a rhythmic contraction, therefore it is not possible to make several pictures in the same position. The IQ (=image quality) - I think - is good because of the planapochromatic lenses and the DIC.
