Newton Colored Detergent

Post by Ernst Hippe »

Hi friends of color,
A thin skin of kitchen detergent, viewed in makeshift epi-illumination, may show this colorful apple.
Achromatic objective 4x.

Nice to hear (see) those positive reactions! Will the new hat come for Ascot?

Awesome shot :smt033

Could you tell us a bit more about the technicalities of your epi-illumination setup. Sometimes when I'm doing the dishes I get severely distracted by a detergent membrane in the dishwash liquid bottle and forget about the dishes altogether :lol: I'd certainly like to explore this on the microscopic level!

bromodomain,
the light must come exactly from above. I use a cover slip, declined 45°, between objective and object - the working distance of my objective 4x is 17mm! So the strong LED light can come horizontally.
I'm still testing a better fixing for the cover slip, and I'll show this when I have the solution.
Regards Ernst
