EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a wall lizard's leg, captured through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The surface of the leg is adorned with an array of tiny hairs that serve a crucial purpose in the lizard's life. These minuscule hairs play a vital role in enabling the reptile to effortlessly navigate vertical and overhanging surfaces by creating intermolecular forces. At a magnification level of x600, this 6x7cm image allows us to marvel at nature's ingenuity. The wall lizard, scientifically known as Lacerta muralis, has evolved these specialized hairs to conquer its environment with ease. As we observe closely, we can appreciate the multiple shades of red and brown that adorn its leg. This photograph not only captures the beauty and complexity found within nature but also provides valuable insights into zoology and wild animal behavior. It serves as a reminder of how diverse our world truly is, showcasing one small aspect of reptilian life. The Science Photo Library has once again delivered an awe-inspiring image that sparks curiosity about our natural surroundings. Whether you are fascinated by reptiles or simply intrigued by scientific discoveries, this print invites you to explore the wonders hidden within even the tiniest creatures on Earth.
