zoom in x 40

Another find at the science festival - its is school holidays so I had to do a bit of elbowing to get my spot at the table experimenting with magnification.  They had set up stands with the magnifying lens from a laser pointer which can be used with a smart phoen to produce a magnified image on the screen.

I only had my camera with me but had a play anyway and after much moving of the lens and camera I managed some shots which show the magnification

 

this speciminis a leaf.  Great fun looking at different materials and amazing what you can do with simple materials.

welcome to some new people zooming in and out last week and of course a big hello and thanks to all the regulars
