Very cool. What sort of salt are you using there? I have never managed to get ordinary table salt to form crystals like that.
Thanks Dave, it was one of the "leftover" slides - mix of different salts & chemicals (tartaric, ascorbic acid, my blood pressure medications, antibiotics etc) - sometimes it gives interesting results. Later I'm going to post my lightning setup, which gave nice results.MagicDave wrote:Very cool. What sort of salt are you using there?

Another one. King Kong ?
33 photos, same setup, except modulator - got some "ND sheet" from China, so tried to improvise HM "thing" plus pol filter together on the rotatable insert above the objective.

Filters are temporary, just for testing, will make something better ...carlos.uruguay wrote:What is the modulator filter? an analyzer?
Rotatable pol insert fits Nikon EPI illuminators, Microphots etc ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/323232270818 , 27mmx5.6mm) . It contains gears, when you are rotating one end, another rotates also.
