Fruit fly, SEM Z340 / 0768
Fruit fly. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a fruit fly (Drosophila funebris) on an apple. Its compound eyes (red) are seen and its wings are outstretched. Fruit flies are widely used in genetic experiments, particularly in mutation experiments, because they reproduce rapidly and their genetic systems are well understood. Magnification: x20 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a fruit fly, captured through a scanning electron microscope. The vibrant colors and astonishing details bring to life the fascinating world of this tiny creature. Resting on an apple, the fruit fly's outstretched wings and compound eyes are prominently displayed. Fruit flies, specifically Drosophila funebris, have long been utilized in genetic experiments due to their rapid reproduction rate and well-understood genetic systems. Their significance in mutation studies cannot be overstated. This image serves as a testament to their importance in scientific research. The magnification level of x20 allows for an up-close examination when printed at 10 centimeters wide. Every minute feature is clearly visible, from the delicate structure of its wings to the mesmerizing red hue of its compound eyes. As we delve into this microcosmic realm, we gain insight into the wonders of nature's diversity. This photograph not only highlights the incredible complexity found within even the smallest creatures but also reminds us that there is still so much left to discover about our natural world. Captured by Power and Syred for Science Photo Library, this image represents a fusion between artistry and science - showcasing both technical expertise and aesthetic appeal. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies hidden within everyday objects while igniting curiosity about what lies beyond our naked eye's perception.
