SEM image of bristle worm appendages

Sweet.

Here is a pic of the whole worm.

Something electron microscope?

wow, did you take that?

Yes, I took the pic. We have a few of these microscopes where I work. It's cool to image insects too.

I can imagine, very cool pic and very original for a photo contest entry.

Thanks

+1 original

I can see how that is painful.

you can really see the bristles.... eh?

I <3 electron microscopes. Great pic!

definitely the coolest pic so far

Nice picture. Not something you see very often (probably due to the specialized and expensive equipment necessary!).

Thanks for sharing.

WOW thats VERY cool man! You should make posters out of stuff like this.. very cool almost abstract

Yeah, this is very original and great to see close up shots like this using equipment I will never have access to. Again, thanks for sharing. I learned something. Who knew what a bristle worm's bristle really looked like. :-) Now I do...

this pic looks like a zoom on a bald guy's head, really cool though.

so every spikey thing is actualy comprised of many many smaller spikey things?!?! EVERYTHING I KNOW IS A LIEE

nice pic, now at least I know what they look like close up.
