Beautiful work! I bought that lens because of your earlier examples, and I really like it.

Very attractive images Jorgen. I like the stomatal details and the sphere topped trichome. It is also interesting in the lower image that so much internal detail shows up in the cells of the white spot. Will have to review this plant in the future.

Thank you Lou Jost and Walter Piorkowski!

Here is a photo where I used two UV Convoy LEDs and a Baader Fringe Killer filter.

Today I received my LOMO 60X 1.0 lens for water dipping. The lens is short and the WD is even shorter, but the picture quality is nice. Stacking is difficult, the subject is transparent, and the chloroplast moves slightly from picture to picture.

Begonia stomata and trichome stacked with the Lomo 60x objective. I was hoping to replicate the UV light I used with the Olympus lens, but the WD is a little too short.

Thanks Jacek and razashaikh

The Lomo lens worked well with the nikon 2.5x projection lens. I used a filter qube with polarizers for the halogen epi light.
