Photomicroscopy

Pollen grains often have very intricate shapes and structure. They have several layers, spines, pores, ...etc.

Plant tissue is very interesting to examine under the microscope. Here are some samples.

Bacteria, Fungi, and Yeast.

Growing up in Egypt, it was hard to come by photomicroscopy equipment, because this was only available to research institutes. For an individual, it was unusual to take this as a hobby.

I have been interested in the invisible world that can only be seen through a microscope for a long time. Ever since I was in grade school, then in high school, and in university as well.These pages describe some of what I used to see, how I got a camera adapter, and some fascinating photos I took as well.
