Here are a couple of shots of a Ribes flower which is from a bush growing at the base of a tree next to the road outside my house...
Stamen just starting to peek open. A few minutes later this has become a massive blob of pollen!
25 slices with Nikon CF N 10x/0.30 objective (at a bit less than 10x mag)
and a blob, don't know what this is but the outside of the flowers have a lot of these little mushroomy things on them. It's not /fantastic/ but I do find stacking at 40x quite difficult still!
92 slices with Nikon CF M 40x/0.50 ELWD

wow, I dream of a frame filler like this mag.
Pretty sure it's a trichome, lots of sticky bug catching plants like the sundew have them but this one is pretty small
