Description Very tiny crystals of titanium dioxyde (Anatase) grown on Albite. They are glued to the end of a match to take the picture, there you can see the size of the crystals (about 0.6mm).
Anatase is one of my favourite crystals, so expect more pictures of it.
The lens used is an old manual Soligor macro for the Olympus OM system.
Found in Grieswies, Hüttwinkltal (Austria)

I can never seem to find a decent macro lens to do great close ups like these

I'm sure they exist. I'm using old lenses because I've a huge collection of them from former times. You can get adapters for almost any camera and the old lenses are good and cheap.

Well, it is a 35-70 f2.5-3.5 macro zoom from Soligor, but you have to mind the cropfactor of the micro fourthirds system. It is 2 I guess.
