DMT crystals under the microscope

[tryptographer]

I made some pictures of DMT crystals in polarized light. It was recrystallized from ethanol.
The amount used is obviously tiny, less than a milligram.
Pretty but nearly as psychedelic as the mental effects

But how to make the pics visible???

try image shack?

 

[The Traveler]

The posted images show up fine here. Are you having problems seeing the pictures you attached to your post?

 

[Jorkest]

i cant see them either traveler

 

[VisualDistortion]

I can't see em either. This has happened in other threads with other people too. I think you might have a image posting malfunction after the update.

I also cannot see them or any of the images I recently added to my own posts either.

This is what I see:

That's it.

Same here... downloaded 3 times now but how?? I still can't see any attached images since the update.

OK I registered at Imageshack, waiting for the registration email, takes a long time... anyway, DMT is not more special under the microscope than everyday substances like sugar or tartric acid. I'll try some alternative crystallizations, more to follow!

You should be able to see the pictures now.


Kind regards,

[tryptographer]

Great work Traveler, attached images work again!
I really have to update the equipment but more to follow.
I swear this is real DMT... cheers!

SWIM has a 60-100x small pocket microscope, very nice, but cant take a picture from it

I didn't keep a log, this was a first tryout of my digital cam on the old Russian microscope I bought when I was 13, looong time ago now... just breathed some new life into this old hobby!

I used three objectives 3.7x, 8x and 20x. It's hard to tell what the actual magnification on your screen is, looking through the microscope it would be 27x, 56x or 140x. The lower magnifications suffer from chromatic abberation due to the Huygens eyepiece, the 20x is a very good apochromat.
Better planapochromatic lenses are needed but hey, $$$

Here's a few more examples, enjoy!

Wow! These pictures look like imagery of distant planets surfaces, like the moon Europa, they have a very topographical feel to me lol. Love em!
