If you are scared of creepy crawlies you might want to look away now. These are the remarkable close-up photographs of flies composed by stitching together up to 687 separate images taken through a microscope. Tomas Rak photographs a tiny area of the fly under a microscope before moving it a mere five hundredth of a millimetre and taking another snap. It can take a staggering 687 movements and 'micro-photographs' to capture every part of the fly in such stunning detail. Astonishing colours gleam on the head of a dung beetle, Anoplotrupes Stercorosus. Its entire body is only 10mm long. The whiskery head of a Vespula Vulgaris, the common wasp. The photographs are the result of an ingenious photography technique using a microscope. The shimmering and exquisite head of a wasp, measuring just 2mm. Even the hairs on its antennae are clear.
