A micrograph made with my iPhone and a 10x stereo microscope. I first tried a 15 dollar gadget that affixes to the microscope and holds the iPhone in place. Even though I used a remote shutter release the results were not very good. I took these photos by hand-holding my iPhone to the microscope's eye piece and they came out better (!) although not great.

Nice job, Paul. Next I want to see some 3D pics! That's exactly how I made mine for years (amazing how good eyepiece projection and a cell phone works!).

Pretty good to see, Paul. I love these silicated irons.
