Looking through the microscope today.

Looking at a slide of a mammal's ovary under the microscope. Per Wikipedia the white blobs with a dot in the middle are called ovarian follicles. Women begin puberty with about 400,000 follicles, each with the potential to release an egg cell (ovum) at ovulation.

Mallard ducks. Lots of color.

Testing Open Broadcast Software

I've been playing with a program called Open Broadcast Software for streaming live video. I had a couple of webcams set up and needed something to make a video about. I hadn't cleaned my pistol since the last time I went to the range, so I made a video of me cleaning my pistol (Walther Colt 1911 22lr.) It turned out rather well.
