Microscope!

OK This was just too cool not to post! I found on Donna Young's website today, that I could use my simple digital camera to take pictures of whatever we are viewing on our microscope. I thought I had to buy the fancy kind, but noooooooooooooooooooooooooo... it was so simple, and mine came out just fine! Here are some pictures of a bird feather we were looking at this morning. If you click on the pictures, you can see the barbs and barbules pretty clearly, I think!

Thanks for sharing that, Dawn! I'm going to try photographing our next microscope adventure and see if I can get good, clear shots, too.
