Plus a couple of others I took, that I'm pleased with:

That is exceptionally sharp for a phone pic!
Jad, yeah, iPhone 5, it has a superb camera. It's good enough I think to make compacts obsolete. The panoramas it takes are good too.

Choice: Watch strictly come dancing or stab myself and take pic of my blood @ 450X magnification.

What gear have you got to take a pic of your blood??,thats an idiot question but i have been drinking;)
Just an old monocular microscope that I got for Xmas when I was 12! (nearly 17yrs ago)
Similar to the ones half way down the page http://www.brunelmicroscopes.co.uk/student-microscope.html
Dslr on a tripod looking down the eyepiece, could be better quality if I had an adapter but it gives reasonable results.
Surface of a fly's wing - the hairs are in the same order of size magnitude as blood cells!

I'm going to offer some cycling ones, taken today at the Zolder World cup cyclocross. It's fair to say the conditions were gopping (technical term) and it was really dark, I struggled to get anything like a decent shutter speed whilst keeping the ISO at something sensible, I was at f2.8 most of the time so lots of shots out of focus.

Weather turned to shit when I got to the top and Creag Meaghaidh is no place to be tardy with navigation so the camera was put away.
