Challenging to get clear images (I might have to try again with this flower later in the season...). Darkfield looks textured, but reflective appears smooth.

Observing the shed scales from a Carolina anole foot made me feel like I was studying a dragon! Tiny lizards can spark a powerful imagination when viewed under a Foldscope!

Changing perspectives
We usually think of bubbles as fragile & light.
But under the microscope, bubbles are massive and solid, and easily push things out of the way.

Why bubbles? Because bubbles are fun! 😊

The first flower I put under the #Foldscope from my Mother’s Day bouquet was a Sweet-William. Enjoy!
The pollen grains were sooooo tiny - it was hard to get a good picture of them! (340X+5X)

Playing with lighting. The pollen really sparkles in the darkfield lighting!

These flowers caught my eye, so you know what I did, right? I took a look at the pollen under my Foldscope! I love the intricate pattern on the surface of the grains. Enjoy!

This sample was gathered at the base of a waterfall I saw while hiking.
Desmids have high degrees of symmetry which remind me of paper snowflakes. Enjoy!

The rosemary in my garden has purple flowers blooming! I looked at the pollen from those flowers in my Foldscope 2.0 at 340X(+5X digital zoom). I used different lighting techniques too!

Carolina anoles can switch from brown to green and back again as a form of camouflage. Under a Foldscope 2.0, the scales go from gold to blue! (140X)

Challenging to find (the flowers do not have large prominent anthers), but worth the effort to put under my Foldscope 2.0 at 140X magnification (+5X zoom). Enjoy!

A friend brought me sand to explore with my Foldscope!
They look like asteroids!
This is a sample I will be exploring in more depth in the coming months!

I found a vorticella in a river water sample. I ❤️ watching it slowly release its cilia.
