It’s hard to believe that William Blake wasn’t looking through a microscope when he wrote those words. I was astonished when, as a kid, I read Richard Matheson’s sci-fi classic The Shrinking Man, and realized creation is not only infinitely large, it’s also infinitesimally small! I never cease to be in awe of the sheer artistry and remarkable design revealed in macro, micro, and even sub-microscopic photographs.

Those pictures are absolutely amazing! ☺
While it works in WP Reader, I found the photos so much better on your page itself! Stunning!!
“A Wrinkle in Time” stunned me, as well as learning about mitochondria!
God’ divine design is amazing.
Wow, these photos are amazing!!
Amazing and stunning. What a wondrous God we serve. Blessings.
You too, Michael.
We are changed by all that we see, if only we bother to look.
We are indeed, Jorge.
An ant carrying a computer chip. Marvelous.
Looks like its carrying its briefcase to work.
Or maybe I should say its computer.
Cool post!
AWESOME! (Just random coincidence, right? 😉 )
Exactly, Annie. ;>)
What a wonderful world, right?
Yup!
Amazing stuff when you stop to think about it just as fractal geometry is found everywhere in nature and once seen can never be unseen.
Perhaps I need to get out more and think less.
Awesome photo!
Blake was fantastic…
These images are incredible! It’s amazing to see the beauty and detail of the smallest items in our world.
It is, isn’t it?
Beautifull pictures!!
Awesome pictures! The only ones I guessed were the snowflake and the bed bug. What does that say of me? I’m afraid to ask and even more afraid to know the answer 😆
As always, very interesting post
These are really cool! ^_^ Sharing it on facebook for my friends to see. 🙂

We have hives and a macro lens for our camera so we can capture them in all their tiny detailed glory.
How cool, JPC!
