A powerful electron microscope reveals the unseen, wild and bizarre beauty of flowers like you have never seen it before. Some of the photos might look like alien worlds and creatures and after looking at them you will never think of flowers like you used to! |
|
This looks like a pile of funny looking peas but it's really a part of a flower.
|
 |
|
Here is an even closer look at the same part. |
 |
|
And it really is a... |
 |
|
But not all petals look alike, like this royal red one. |
 |
|
From a majestic Rose. |
 |
|
This might look to some people like a fuzzy yellow bug. |
 |
|
But it's a petal from a bright Primula. |
 |
|
This fossil looking thing isn't even a petal. |
 |
|
But it's a tiny bud form a Bay Laural plant. |
 |
|
This looks like a monster form a bad horror movie. |
 |
|
But it's only the tip of a blossoming Hibiscus flower. |
 |
|
Now there are two monsters fighting? |
 |
|
No, just a friendly looking Marigold. |
 |
|
This is part of a stigma, the part of the flower thats hidden inside the petals. |
 |
|
And another one just like it but with some "friends" on it. |
 |
|
Both are part of a Arnica flower. |
 |
|
These white round things look so delicate and fragile. |
 |
|
They are a part of the Lilac flower. |
 |
|
Now this is something we haven't seen before. |
 |
|
It's a Pollen from a Coltsfoot. |
 |
|
The Pollen is the dust flowers use to reproduce and it's created in the Stamen. |
 |
|
This Stamen belongs to a Small Leaved Lime plant. |
 |
|
This one is a real beauty, a white pearly waterfall. |
 |
|
And yet it's just a humble looking Chamomile flower. |
 |
|
We end with another white wonder, a flower within a flower. |
 |
|
At an even closer look it becomes an inviting white blanket to snuggle in. |
 |
| All hidden inside the Valerian flower. |
