Yesterday I was searching the internet, and all of a sudden I saw some pictures that drew my attention. They were so gorgeous, and as I saw more, I liked them more and more. In my mind I thought that it was some modern artist, but later on I read an article about these pictures. And it turned out that these materials were released by the Materials research Society. All of the pictures I saw were captured by a ... microscope! Can you imagine that? A simple microscope can produce the real art? It's still hard for me to believe. But anyway, researchers from across the globe brought their best microscope pictures to the annual Science as Art competition in San Francisco. And only eight winners were selected from more than 200 entries. This is wonderful! I'm 100% sure that it's a MUST SEE for all of you! Do, don't waste your time, go ahead, and take a look.
