This web site highlights a new series of photo essays featuring observations you can make with a good compound microscope, a sense of the mysteries of life waiting to be discovered, some patience, and a desire to ask questions. Users join award-winning biologist/film-maker, Bruce Russell, as he discovers and photographs the lives of micro-organisms. The series of essays indexed on this site are updated every month or two and included titles such as: "Intimate Relationships Among the Very Small", "Bacteria: Ya Can't Live Without Um", "Colpidium: Rabbit of the Microcosm", and "Bring 'em Back Alive". The site includes links to colorful photoessays, galleries, additional informative sites on micro-organisms, and other features of BioMedia.
