DMT crystal photos

Hi all! 1st post 
DMT extraction from Mimosa rootbark, using Noman's tech. Naphtha containing alkaloids was evaporating in a small cocktail glass, and left covered overnight. I figure the temperature got cold enough for a nice slow precipitation, as these platelet crystals formed:


Later, once drained, a gradient of purity could be seen towards the lip of the glass:

And the platelets look nice when dry too!


Yumm.

Wow, nice work, congrats. 
What camera do you have? If you have a dslr (or anything with a detachable lens) there is a neat trick you can try to go into super-macro mode. Just take your normal-lens ad turn it upside down and hold it there as best as you can (it depends on the camera model, some fit perfectly right in, others need a bit of handiness), you could get some awesome close-ups this way of those crystals.

Nice! Some of them look like little baby weed leaves. But white.

Funny you should mention the backwards lens trick... These shots were done with a f1.7 lens taped backwards onto a Powershot:
 I've been drooling over pictures like these for years!
This is from the lower edge of the crust on the glass above. Does it look reasonably pure?

Here's a close look at a tray left to evaporate completely:

And my fave shot:

I had to save them on my hdd. Especially the close ups of the ultrapure formations.
