Wellcome Images is the world’s leading source of images of medicine and its history. The Wellcome Image Awards recognize the creators of the most informative, striking and technically excellent images among recent acquisitions. You can view all of the 2011 winners at http://www.wellcomeimageawards.org/. This photomicrograph shows an adult ruby-tailed wasp curled into a ball. The wasp was lit with two electronic flashes while imaging to highlight the natural iridescent colours on its body.

This stuff is really cool! I wouldn’t mind owning some of these images and having them framed to hang around the house.
