EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate surface structure of a human tongue, captured through a colored scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the presence of taste-buds, also known as papillae, which are responsible for detecting various chemical elements in foodstuffs. These sensory cells play a crucial role in our sense of taste and contribute to our overall gustatory experience. The light-colored papillae stud the surface of the tongue, forming an awe-inspiring pattern that highlights the complexity and beauty within our own bodies. With a magnification level of x115 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this photograph allows us to delve into the microscopic world hidden within our mouths. As we marvel at this biological wonder, it serves as a reminder of how intricately designed and interconnected our bodies truly are. The healthy and normal tissue displayed here represents one small part of what makes up the incredible human body. Captured by CLOUDS HILL IMAGING LTD/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this stunning SEM micrograph provides us with both scientific insight and aesthetic appreciation. It invites us to contemplate not only the biology behind taste perception but also encourages us to reflect on the wonders that lie beneath what meets the eye.
