Toasted Marshmallow

An image sequence of the sun being focused through
a magnifying glass onto a mini marshmallow.

The movie was captured with a Digital Blue QX5 Computer Microscope
at 10X magnification. The QX5 was strapped with velcro to a camera tripod leg.

CAUTION: Looking at the focused light from the sun can damage your eyes.
