Woodlouse, SEM
Woodlouse. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the underside of a woodlouse (order Isopoda). Woodlice are common small crustaceans which are found throughout the world in leaf litter and beneath rocks and logs. They eat decaying plant and animal matter and some can roll their segmented body into a ball when threatened

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of a woodlouse, captured through a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image focuses on the underside of this fascinating creature belonging to the order Isopoda. Woodlice, commonly found worldwide in leaf litter and beneath rocks and logs, play an essential role in ecosystems by consuming decaying plant and animal matter. The woodlouse's segmented body is highlighted here, displaying its ability to roll into a protective ball when threatened. Its exoskeleton shines under the microscopic lens, revealing every detail of its biology. Delicate antennae protrude from its head, aiding in sensory perception as it navigates its environment. This photograph not only captures the natural world's incredible diversity but also serves as a testament to the wonders of zoology and wildlife exploration. As we delve deeper into understanding these small crustaceans' lives, we gain insights into their vital ecological roles. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into nature's intricacies through this stunning portrayal of a woodlouse. This image invites us to appreciate the often-overlooked beauty that lies within our surroundings – reminding us that even tiny creatures can hold immense significance within our vast ecosystem.
