This is an SEM Nano Gigapan of an ant holding a fly in its mandible. This image came about when we found some ants this morning in the kitchen and decided to take them into work to image. While looking for other cool things to image I also stumbled across a very small fly that was dead on the table (you might not bel...

This is the first attempt at a micro gigapan using an optical microscope with a digitally controlled xyz stage (Prior Scientific Instruments ProScan H29XYZE controller). I think the magnification is around 200x. The camera attached to the microscope was a Cannon G5 IS. I'm having some trouble getting the camera vie...

This is my second attempt at doing a micro-gigapan using an optical microscope and a computer controlled xyz stage. I think the magnification is near 200x. I managed to reduce the vignetting considerably, though it is still somewhat apparent in the unfocused background. Compare the optical to the scanning electron m...

This is an image of an ant holding a fly taken through an optical microscope magnified ~40x. It is a 24 image mosaic with some focus stacking. This is the same ant and fly that I have imaged using a SEM last summer, you can see that image here: gigapan.org/gigapans/28295/ In the SEM image the ant and fly a...
