Amazing photos...

'Cool macro photos' (see above) linked to the winning phots from a Wired photo competition... Equally amazing are the winners of 'Best microscopic images of 2008' (e.g. the picture below of a leaf beetle, taken by retired Canadian entomologist Klaus Bolte)...

... as are the winners of 'The best science photos of 2008' determined by the National Science Foundation in conjunction with the journal Science (see below for a photo of suckers on the tentacle of a squid, taken by Jessica Schiffman, a Drexel University doctoral student)
