Now getting fancy, I think microscopes are amazing. I haven't used them a lot unfortunately but whenever I had the chance they got addictive pretty fast. They reveal another world that exists right here, that we can't perceive, and I'm always mesmerised. Microphotography doesn't scratch the same itch, there is something about inspecting your own sample .
