*They may look like monsters from a horror film, but these tiny creatures

inhabit our homes, clothes and even our bodies. A new book, 'Micro

Monsters', showcases some of the planet's most horrible insects and

microscopic beasts. British author and trained zoologist, Tom Jackson, spent

three months compiling the images in the book. Scientists coated the tiny

creatures in gold, froze them in liquid nitrogen and fired a beam of

electrons at the subjects from a scanning electron microscope to reveal the

incredible detail*

*"I wanted to get together all the most gruesome and beastly pictures I

could," said 38 year-old Tom from Bristol. "This book shows children

everything that's around them at home, the garden and the playground."*

*"The pictures I'm most pleased with are the close-up portraits of insects

that show the intricate details of their eyes, mandibles and even the hairs

on their heads," said Tom*

*"I've tested the book out on my son Ned and it hasn't given him any bad

dreams, in fact he loves it. In particular Ned likes like the nasty worms."*

*In scanning electron microscopy, a beam of electrons is fired at the

subjects. Electrons have shorter wavelengths than lights waves so smaller

objects can be captured.*

Mycena Micro mushroom on the bark of an ancient oak. These micro mushrooms are only about 2-3mm high and may only last a day.

Sorry It's only a screen shot Bluerender doesn't seem to recognize the colour and renders it a dark Gunmetalish shade

This was one of the smallest Classic Space sets ever made, and was not available in the US. Building the tiny sets presents a unique challenge, as it's hard to get much detail without bulking up the model too much. The rear of this craft had an anomaly: transparent blue used for the engines. This color was not used in Classic Space until 1981 when it was paired with white vehicles.

55mm f2.8 micro nikkor AI-s-manual "1981 model"

 

after fidling for much time i end up with a decent light setup,,exprementing with product photography,,this old micro nikkor is gem ' 55mm manual,no metering or any auto functions work with d70 body but very easy to use if you already using the manual mode for years.. ,high optical quality compared to now a days lenses.,i think its outa production since long now, ,,,

I had a blast building these ships with my little bros. It was hard because we've never really had the experience of building at micro scale, but it was fun! I think however, that some of the ships are cooler in our head than they are in real life haha

Our small Micro Machines collection. 2nd row to the last row is from another brand that copied Micro Machines. I can't remember the brand name though.

A macro of a Micro Moth but I don't know what make. View this at thumbnail size and you might just see a bird's head.

Got these finally. They are super duper CUTE!!!

I love Lego chess sets, and wanted to do a micro one.

Hope you enjoy!

 

Any New Mexicans out there? We're gathering Lego forces for NMLUG!
