EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of collagen fibres, as seen through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The vibrant colors bring to life the healthy and normal composition of these structural elements found in human connective tissue. Collagen, being the primary protein responsible for maintaining the body's structure, plays a crucial role in various parts such as bones, tendons, and even our skin. At a magnification of x1100 and printed at 6x7cm size, this image allows us to delve into the microscopic world within our own bodies. The detailed histological view reveals an awe-inspiring network of fibres that form an essential foundation for our physical well-being. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork captured by Science Photo Library, it is impossible not to appreciate the complexity and elegance of nature's design. Beyond its scientific significance lies an aesthetic appeal that draws us closer to understanding ourselves on a deeper level. Whether you are fascinated by anatomy or simply intrigued by the wonders of life itself, this photograph serves as a reminder that there is always more than meets the eye – even within something as seemingly ordinary as collagen fibres.
