Took a photo of my cupboard door handle for this week's Macro Monday theme and found a little micro planet :-)
HMM!

*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.*

He loves exploring a lot ,and especially likes little stuff. He is very happy and proud that he's part of the team.
I saw this little microdot of an insect on a rose petal. I wanted to see how close I could get. Camera handheld without flash. The 2nd shot gives a little perspective just how small. Pleasanton, CA.
