EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a midge antenna, captured through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The antenna, belonging to this small fly species, is adorned with an array of sensory hairs that play a crucial role in its survival.

Although we are unsure about the exact magnification used for this photograph, it undoubtedly unveils an unseen world full of complexity and wonder. The vibrant colors showcased in this SEM image add an artistic touch to our scientific understanding of these fascinating creatures. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly insignificant organisms like flies or midges, there lies immense beauty waiting to be discovered. With its focus on nature, animal life, wild life, zoology, and anatomy among other fields; this mesmerizing print from Science Photo Library provides us with a glimpse into the sensitive and sensory world of insects.
