Description
I own a light microscope, and you'd be surprised how many strange lifeforms coexist with the macroscopic organisms we see everyday. The difficulties of taking pictures with a microscope is the necessity of having a specialized camera, I used my phone to take this picture (a lot of precision, and it's easy for the light from the source to overwhelm the camera), and I've been playing around with the slides. The image is 150x zoom of dust, and that blobbish figure is actually a house dust mite. I was quite surprised to find one, and unfortunately, I couldn't take a clear image of the beast since it kept crawling into the fibers. Originally, I was going to see if I can view demodex mites, but I still have no success . However, I'm satisfied of how I approached the image despite the lack of clarity in the subject. I made something minute look foreign, or alien to humans, which indeed it is. I highly recommend people to watch videos and pictures under the microscope.
