I follow this guy on Twitter. He’s got optical and electron microscopy photographs that are amazing. Look at what the foot of a mosquito looks like at 1,200X magnification. And me with my puny 1X macro lens. So sad.

In my category, “things to not to observe too closely”, I previously had two entries, laws and sausages. Now I have to add mosquito feet.
What a horror.
It’s weird looking but very interesting. I’ll bet that’s a focus stack.
Definitely have to follow that account. Life at the ultra-micro level is fascinating.
Yeah, he does some zooms starting at normal size and shrinking down to the cellular level. Visually stunning.
