Hey all,
This photo won fifth place in Nikon's Small World photo competition, in which scientists send in their best photos of microscopic life (see http://www.nikonsmallworld.com/). I think it should have received the first prize! It's a bird of paradise seed, believe it or not! As Javi says, "It's beautiful even before it's born." Amen.
What an incredible image. Somehow it resembles what the flower will look like as though it was a "phetus". Very appropriate also for Halloween. It's giving me some ideas for the Jim Henson theme party we're going to.
