Someone: Please combine microscopy with gaussian splatting.

Don't know if this would be in your wheelhouse, but for very nice macro splats, check out the work by Dany Bittel: https://danybittel.ch/macro.html

For example this bumblebee: https://superspl.at/scene/cf6ac78e

Edit: I completely missed that this was posted by him (:

		Incredible that specular highlight isotropy vectors are somehow encoded.

This was also my first thought when I zoomed in into the strawberry. I wonder if you can achieve a microscope like effect with a more suitable setup. E.g. better lighting, zoom, lens, etc.

		I have done 2x macro (an ant).. and want to try 5x.. but as you get closer, the depth of field becomes really shallow. You can do focus stacking but you risk that the individual areas in focus are less ideal aligned and the tracking can't make any sense out of the geometry anymore.
