Beerenol crystals magnified 100X with a Leitz SM microscope under polarized light. I placed a drop of Beerenol on a microscope slide, as the water evaporated the crystals started to grow.
I used to take 'Crystal Photos' when I was a Scientific Photographer at University College London -- i had the use of a Zeiss Photomicroscope and used 'Ferraniacolor' slide film and Gevaert 'Scientiacolor Print Film' which I processed myself -- I still HAVE a few results in computer.
Pete, I used a microscope a lot in college plus my first job after I graduated was in a lab using PLM and Phase contrast microscopes but I never did any photography. I’m having a great time re-introducing myself to microscopes and learning the photography part of it. It would be great to see some of your old photos.
Thanks Raphael, I’m trying to compose some nice shots of interesting subjects.
@jnanian I do use PBR a lot but I think this was Henry Weinhard's Private Reserve, someone left a few cans at my house after a party. Most of my friends have been put on notice, if they leave cheap beer I will develop film with it.
