EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Steve Gschmeissner showcases the intricate beauty of optic nerve fibres. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are presented with a mesmerizing view of axons from the optic nerve, which transmit visual information from the retina to the brain. The image is further enriched by the presence of connective tissue fibres, resembling delicate threads that intertwine within this complex neural network. The vibrant colours employed in this false-coloured representation bring attention to the remarkable intricacy and functionality of our optical system. With a magnification of x2000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide, every minute detail becomes visible, allowing us to appreciate the wonders hidden within our own bodies. This photograph not only serves as a testament to human biology but also highlights its healthy and normal state. It offers an invaluable glimpse into neurology and neuroscience, shedding light on how our central nervous system operates. By capturing these neurons and their interconnecting fibres in such stunning detail, Gschmeissner's work invites us to marvel at both nature's design and scientific progress. Without mentioning any commercial use or affiliations with any company, this print stands as a testament to Gschmeissner's talent for merging artistry with science. It reminds us that even within ourselves lies an extraordinary world waiting to be explored through microscopic lenses.
