This Mercury glubule is my first attempt at microphotography. Obviously I have a lot to learn, like reflections. However the reflection here attests to the nerly perfect spherical shape of the element as that is my ring light creating the "eyeball" effect. The drop is about 0.012" (0.3 mm).Socrates Mine, Middletown, West Mayacmas District,Sonoma County, California (Author: Jim Prentiss)
