p.1 #1 · Hemitrichia at High Magnification and My Favourite Stereo
I am calling this Hemitrichia as a working name but expect it to be correct.
We were about to start a survey at a local National Trust woodland nature reserve and took a look around the periphery of the car park. I looked on the undersides of two well-rotted old fence posts lying on the ground in a grassy area. This is the more photogenic one.
I took a sample home to shoot these images. The FOV is ca 3mm wide.
I love the delicacy of the transparent edge of the cup. The capitillium seems not to be going to expand, or at least not yet.
The (crosseye) stereo is one I could only have made successful with the 25mm lens.
