Here’s a collection of incredible microscopic images of plant, insects, 3D-body shots and some other stuff. Pictures are incredible since they have both scientific and artistic qualities. Enjoy!

Red blood cells (50 pics)


Split end of human hair


Purkinje neurons. Some of the largest 100 billion neurons in your brain. This cells are master of motor coordination in the cerebellar cortex.


Hair cell in the ear


Blood vessels emerging from the optic nerve


Tongue with taste bud


Tooth plaque


Blood clot


Alveoli in the lung


Lung cancer cells


Villi of small intestine


Human egg with coronal cells


Sperm on the surface of a human egg


Human embryo and sperm. It’s five days after the fertilization of an egg, with some remaining sperm cells still sticking around.


Coloured image of a 6-day-old human embryo implanting


It is the male sex organ of a flowering plant


Fluorescent actin protein filaments


Pleurosigma (marine diatoms)


Double transgenic mouse embryo, 18.5 days


Mouse colon


Muscoid fly (house fly)


Quantum dot nanocrystals deposited on a silicon substrate


Filamentous actin and microtubules (structural proteins) in mouse fibroblasts (cells)


Sagittal section of rat cerebellum


Fresh water rotifer feeding among debris


Avicennia marina (mangrove) leaf


Newt lung cell in mitosis (5 different structures)


Endothelial cells


Mouse fibroblasts


Doxorubin in methanol and dimethylbenzenesulfonic acid


Larva of Pleuronectidae


Cross-section of very young beech


Fossil Fusulinids in limestone


10-year old preparation of barbital, fenacetine, valium and acetic acid


Polyurethane elastic fiber bundle


Crystals evaporated from solution of magnesium sulfate and tartaric acid


Multiple exposure of a knitting machine needle


Gold residue and gold-coated bubbles in glassy matrix


Crystals of influenza virus neuraminidase isolated from terns


Live water mount of Hydra viridissima capturing Daphnia pulex


Formalin-fixed whole mount of a spiral nematode, multiple exposure


Inclusions of goethite and hematite in Brazilian agate


Suctorian attached to stalk of red algae, encircled by ring of diatoms


Silverberry scaly hair whole mount


Collapsed bubbles from an annealed experimental electronic sealing glass


Larvacean within its feeding structure dyed with red organic carmine which the larvacean syphoned in while filter feeding


Stalked protozoan attached to a filamentous green algae with bacteria on its surface


Gold, vaporized in a tungsten boat, in a vacuum evaporator


Crystals of rutile (titanium dioxide) and tridymite (a polymorph of quartz) in a cobalt-rich glass


An ant's foot


Amazing microscope photography that will make you say wow!
