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.

Good Mornin' Jonathan! Congratulations on what we all hope will be come a long line of cover work!I read you explanation to Fred, and it sounds fascinating! I follow the idea, but admit that the details are more than I understand.
The photo, itself, looks amazing - no matter how obtained!Well done! You've made a milestone to be proud of! I hope we will see some more from your microscope!
