Hieronymus Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 That's great! Could you provide (here, or in PM or e-mail) me with an explanation of your setup to get such results? I'm able to read French fluently as well, if that's easier for you. http://rhaetianlorraine.webs.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandblanc Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 The tooth is transparent in the beginning. I just worked the light to obtain this result. And much of patience, 50 images with an objective of microscope 4X, and Helicon focus software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandblanc Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Thanks! What type of camera do you use? Any lenses perhaps? Because of the small size of this tooth, I use a Nikon D90 with an old microscope lens of magnification 4X, directly fixed on a macro tube extension with a RMS adapter. Usually, I have a Nikon Micronikkor 40 mm. http://www.thefossil..._40#entry362967 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Sharks Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 That pic is well worth the time and effort. Amazing There's no limit to what you can accomplish when you're supposed to be doing something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Dente Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Nice tooth. Here's a Squalus occidentalis from California. I placed the tooth in water for the photograph to help see into the tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
