Linden Gledhill is an artist who has used his education in science and passion for photography to create beautiful microscopy images. Gledhill utilizes a compound biological microscope to capture his images. The microscopy images were captured with a Canon EOS 5D camera mounted on an Olympus BH-2 microscope using 4x, 10x, 20x, 40x and 100x S-Plan Achromat objectives. DIC was used when capturing some of the images.
