BUTTERFLY WINGS
VIBRANT SCALES UNDER MICROSCOPE
The scales on a butterfly wing are a fascinating subject for photomicrography, revealing an intricate beauty and complexity when viewed up close. By employing high-magnification microscope objectives in combination with a motorized focusing rail and a technical camera, we can achieve an extremely shallow depth of field, necessitating precise camera movements to capture each focal plane. This meticulous process involves merging hundreds of individual exposures to create a single image that highlights the exquisite complexity in butterfly wings.
We specialize in revealing an unseen landscape that showcases the vibrant colors, delicate patterns, and complex scale formations of these natural structures. Beyond their artistic and aesthetic qualities, these images also offer valuable scientific insights into the biological mechanisms that produce their unique coloration and textures.
Through the lens of extreme macro photography, the concealed intricacies of these natural wonders are unveiled, emphasizing the artistry and precision required to capture their beauty.
