Scanning electron microscope
This image illustrates well the capabilities of a scanning electron microscope (SEM). This is a magnification series for a snow crystal, from 93x to 36,000x magnification, using a special low-temperature SEM (LT-SEM) to preserve the crystal. - BRIAN 0918   18:19, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Nominate and support either version. - BRIAN 0918   18:19, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * I think this would work better if there were only a single column, instead of following the successive magnifications in the current zigzag fashion. I'll fiddle with it later today or tomorrow, unless someone beats me to it. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 19:00, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * You asked for it and you got it. I actually like this version more, both because the progression is more natural, and because I didn't have to crop each individual pic to make them all the same size (adds about 300px vertically to the image total).  The only downside was that I had to compress it slightly more to get below the 2MB mark.  -- BRIAN 0918   19:37, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * I also created another version with rectangles indicating what part of the image was magnified. It's not 100% accurate, especially in the skewed one and the higher-magnification ones, but it isn't as necessary at those magnifications anyway.  -- BRIAN 0918   20:17, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Support either single-column version, preferring the one without rectangles. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 21:12, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * Support image with rectangles. Denni &#9775; 21:22, 2005 Mar 21 (UTC)
 * Support columnar version with sub-magnification rectangle highlights. James F. (talk) 23:06, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Support columns with or without rectangles. Holy balls, that's the most intense snowflake I've ever seen. Matthewcieplak 05:10, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Support What Matthewcieplak said. AngryParsley 05:22, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Support all. -SocratesJedi | Talk 08:49, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)


 * Promoted 3rd version -- brian0918 &#153;  23:34, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
