An year back I added a microscope to my collection of gadgets, however, didn’t get much time and interest to play around with it. Finally, I got some time to experiment and I must admit, I am falling in love with microscopic world. Here are some microscopic shots, will be sharing more in future posts.

Fig: Plant cells. The odd cell in the middle could either be a parasite or a starch cell.
Fig: Skin cells: I distinctly remember drawing this diagram back in school.

Me, Science and Life!! 
This is really amazing. How are you taking photos through the microscope? Does it have an image capture device on the inside of it?
Yeah! How?
Picture two- is that a wing? Very cool.
Simply awesome. I must admit to not having seen images like this since … well, I guess AP Biology in high school!
Thanks for the reminder of how cool tiny little things can be! 😉
Thanks for posting these, this makes the biology fan coo songs of excitement! I’m definitely going to subscribe. Feel free to check out my blog as well!
Can’t wait to see more!
Best,
Keith
these creep me out enough to realize why science was never my forte! congrats on the cool pics & being freshly pressed.

These are so cool! I look forward to future microscope pics!!
Wow! I think the skin cells are the coolest.
Microbiology was ALWAYS my favorite class! Love these!!
The mosquito pic is especially disturbing…and I remember drawing that skin diagram when I was in school as well. MANY times.

I can never quite express how interesting thinking about the microscopic world is, might have to get a microscope myself ^^
I absolutely love these images. Biology was always my favorite science (I wasn’t too great at chemisty, and forget physics!). Thanks for sharing them with us!
I have an broad interest in imaging , but this I never did . Last week I saw a little microscope attached with an webcam like device , but the price was very low , so I was really thinking about the quality of the optics , so I didn’t buy it . But looking at these pictures I want to do the same , beautiful !
Congratulations on FP.
Great pictures! I want a microscope now!
wow! very nice pictures!
Neat pictures, although I would rather not see a mosquito up close… it is a little scary.
Fun! I used to love playing around with a microscope when my kids were still being home schooled. It was especially fun, and a little creepy, to look upclose at spiders *shivers*.
Congratulations being Freshly Pressed!
Very nice…if not labeled could pass for ART, don’tcha think? Thanks for sharing!!!
Do you have any videos of amoebas under a microscope?
Amazing photos! Glad you are finding the time to enjoy your microscope.
These are so fascinating. 🙂
Those are interesting images. My mum did similar work with mosquitoes because she studied entomology and worked at a medical research institute. I remember her having a collection of different species of mosquitoes that she had stuck on pins. Is it through a macro lens that these images have been taken?
Stunning pictures. How did you manage to photograph them? Does the microscope have some sort of image capture feature?
So awesome. I love that you’re a blogging scientist!
Thank you for all the wonderful comments. These pictures are taken using Celestron Microscope, which has inbuilt camera. Also, do check out the part-2 of pictures at

This weekend I shall spend time capturing the images of algae and binary cell microorganisms. Will be posting on the blog as soon as I capture them. Thanks.
GOOD PICTURES or PHOTOS , what you prefer to call them – I call it ART !
Im also a colledge graduate in the field of chemistry and one of the first
electron-microscopy pictures I saw , were the pictures of a common fad.
That made me think, but these days the microscopes are much better and
more evolved, so the scientists can see pictures of biological cells and so on.
Thank you for sharing , hope to see more posts ………………………………
Wow. Microproric pictures. That’s nice. Fine pictures.
God, looking at those pictures of the cells really took me back to biology class!! How did you manage to snap the pics down the microscope?
WOW….it is so cool for you to share something that most of us could not otherwise see. -Thank you!
These are truly amazing! Thanks for sharing Mohammed 🙂
Could I ask what Microscope you were using?
too small, if i wanna to see with my eyes without microscope. 🙂
Very nice…if not labeled could pass for ART, don’tcha think? Thanks for sharing!!!
