Boston "Big Picture" has done it again. Brilliant photomicrography from the "Nikon Small World" photo competition.

Wow.

Love some of these close up things, such detail.

I came across some a while ago here .. http://www.flickr.com/photos/fei_com...7626310530903/

It's all incredible stuff, the flip side of astrophotography in a way, we do big, they do small
