First time my work has been on the cover of something:

http://mcr.aacrjournals.org/current.shtml

We'll it's not reflex photography but it was taken through a Leica DM1L
microscope with a Leica 63X APO objective.  If you think that Leica photo
optics are expensive, this tiny piece of glass (it's about the size of a
thumb) cost almost $10K. Microscope is $50K and the monochrome only camera
cost $20K.  An R9/DMR is a bargain in comparison.

The picture has been pseudocoloured in that what appears as white was
actually red.  Blue is really blue.  The actual size of the image is about
0.25mm x 0.5mm.
