Moldy Breaf

Basic microscopes only have a lamp under the specimen being viewed. Sometimes better results are obtained with illumination from just above the specimen, or even a mixture of both. This photo shows the microscope and above that is a Schott lighting unit. The light travels down the flexible tubes so it can be aimed just where I want it.

Here are some views of a piece of mold from an old slice of bread:

PS. The flag seen just above the Schott unit is the flag of the county where I live - Lincolnshire.
