Hello Jonathan, Very nice picture. Congratulations for the publication on the magazinecover. What kind of technique did you use? Fluorescence? DV of oblique reflective fluorescence? I am mainly a wildlife photographer but I also have some Leitz/Leica microscopes (Orthoplan, Dialux and HM-Lux). I am a keen microscopist, taking pictures of marine zooplankton. I use the Leica R8/DM-R-combination on these scopes. Great combination for this kind of work. And really cheap, indeed ;-))) (Compared to your set-up). Kind regards Fred Hess. ----- Original Message ----- From: <jlee@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <leicareflex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2007 5:16 AM Subject: [LRflex] I made it on the cover > 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.
