Microworld Of Susumu Nishinaga

Japanese artist and microscopist Susumu Nishinaga captures micro-worlds of blood vessels, insects, flowers and other biological specimens


            
           
           
           
His photographs are taken with a Scanning Electron Microscope also known as SEM. This interesting approach to photography brings the world of science into a new artistic forefront. The innovative use of current technology combined with the artistic eye managed to produce some stunning pieces that are mainly microscopic close ups of different organic material. 
                       


SEM's have the capability to magnify objects up to one million times. This development of technology has allowed not only scientific discoverers but has now opened up a whole new field of artistic expression. The field of macrophotography has exploded in recent years with new additions to the technology exposing the microscopic world.
