EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Andy Crawford from Universal Images Group (UIG) showcases a close-up model of the head of a horsefly, revealing an intricate cross-section of its eye. In this studio shot, the detailed anatomy of these fascinating insects is brought to life, offering us a glimpse into their optical marvels. The image highlights the remarkable complexity and precision that nature has bestowed upon horseflies' eyes. Each eyeball and eyelet is meticulously portrayed, showcasing the intricacies within these small arthropods. The tabanidae family, commonly known as horse flies or short horned flies, belong to the diptera order - characterized by their two wings. Crawford's photograph not only captures our attention but also sparks curiosity about invertebrates like horseflies and their unique visual abilities. It serves as a reminder that even creatures we may consider insignificant possess extraordinary adaptations for survival. Through this stunning portrayal of dipteran anatomy, we are reminded once again of nature's awe-inspiring diversity and beauty. Whether it be through macro photography or scientific models such as this one, exploring the hidden wonders within our world allows us to appreciate the intricate details that often go unnoticed in everyday life.
