Outreach: Some of my scientific art work made with freeware POVRAY (POV-Ray, Persistence of Vision Raytracer, version 3.5 (www.povray.org)).

Image shows NO molecule in a quantum solvent (superfluid liquid helium at 0.4 Kelvin forming a cluster) prepared for news reports, see usage here: Ultra cold helium nano-droplets related to Physics News Update of the American Institute of Physics #754.
Image shows atomic force microscope cantilever with on tip focused infrared laser beam and sub-surface implants in silicon prepared for publication content list of PCCP, see usage here: DOI: 10.1039/B512780G
The animation shows a measurement of water influx into living cells by changing the buffer medium from HBSS (Hanks balanced salt solution) to a mixture of 1:1 HBSS and bidestilled water. The image was constructed from fluorescence microscopic images in a confocal microscope using calcein AM as a fluorophor. See usage and further details here: microsopy
