Black Madeira @50x's magnification!

From my previous post forum members told me to check for mites! I looked at the leaf up and down pics are in top light and one in backlight, I can't see anything moving at all, in first pic u see 2 little tan bumps, are those anything?
It's the only thing I see, other than tiny particles, let me know your thought, would mites be easy to see at this magnification?
Thanks
What color are these mites? Cause when I brush against the leaf under the microscope I see clear white lice looking thing, on the whole leaf I see 2 I've been looking for an hr now, when I touched it it got startled and moved around the leaf, it's almost invisible!

I think I see four on the first picture.  I really needed to zoom in close to see them when I inspected mine.  Take a look at how large the fig leaf hairs are in my picture by comparison.  That's how zoomed in you need to get in order to see them.
