This was taken by holding my iPhone up to the ocular lens on my microscope. Unfortunately I do not have a camera set up with the microscopes here. I found these guys in a sample of water I collected from the run-off from our commercial aircon unit.

To find the best picture of a water bear use a camera that you can magnify with, and for clear pictures of water bears you may need to magnify it 666 times!!!
