Electron micrographs of golgi and golgi stress

Cover submission from the early 2000s for a published manuscript by Shull Miller and Prasad where golgi, golgi ion transport, and golgi membranes (yep, i am not capitalizing the word Golgi any more, with all due respect to Dr. Golgi, this is no longer about him, it is about the organelle and he has had plenty of fame already).

This cover submission was about flattened golgi, cis and trans faces nicely curved, as opposed to dilation and collection of protein contents.  The cover was never executed, but it is a fun graphic, none-the-less.

Photoshop was used to change color gradients of different electron-densities of the membranes and contents. Cytoplasm here primarily, only a portion of other organelles.

There is an obvious texture to the area associated with the dilated ER, how fun it will be (maybe it will happen) to return to those micrographs and hunt for a patterning in the protein aggregates.
