Another 10-microsecond open-flash image. This time a water-filled balloon had been shot by an air pistol. But instead of the usual images you see of a ball of water hanging in the air, this one was taken showing the pellet … Continue reading
This is an 8-frame focus-stacked photomicromosaic of a Fruit Fly (Drosophila).
This is another focus-stacked photomicromosaic, this time using 5-frames for the mosaic. This is Spirogyra in conjugation at a magnification of 115x.
Bees are a super test of your macrophotography skills due to all the fine hairs.
In these three HSF images you can see a water-filled glass with a soap bubble over the top – about to burst. Underneath the soap bubble there is a rising column of water from the first water drop, and the … Continue reading
This is a focus-stacked photomicromosaic of a Dragonfly’s eye. What does that mouthful mean? Well at the magnification used (20x) the whole Dragonfly eye will not fit into the FOV of the Canon 5D MkIII on a research trinocular microscope. … Continue reading
This is a 60 Megapixel image of an Owl Butterfly (underside) taken with a Canon DSLR and a Canon 100mm macro lens. The image is a mosaic and comprises of 6 separate frames that are put together in Photoshop to … Continue reading
Here’s an example of just one of many high-speed images taken using my own designed and built high-speed Xenon flashguns. This is an exposure time of just 10-microseconds (1/100,000th of a second) taken using the open-flash technique. A pair of … Continue reading
With the acquisition of the new HP T230 4-colour printer, I am once again able to offer prints of ANY image you see on the NFO site. Print sizes available are A4, A3, A2 with a maximum of A1. Prints … Continue reading
This week we feature the Cone nebula region, a 3-frame (horizontal) mosaic taken with the Hyperstar III on the C11 with an M25C OSC CCD. On the left we have the Cone nebula, the central beautiful golden open cluster is … Continue reading
