Bacteria on a pin, SEM
Bacteria on a pin. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of bacteria (orange) on the tip of a pin. Although considered sharp and smooth on a human scale, it can be seen that the surface of the pin is rough and the tip is blunt on the scale of a bacterium. Magnification: x1600 when printed 10cm high. In terms of microns (thousandths of a millimetre), the tip of the pin is some 30 microns across, and the bacteria are about 5 microns long

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of bacteria on a minuscule scale. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a glimpse into the hidden realm residing on the tip of a pin. While our human perception perceives it as sharp and smooth, this image reveals an entirely different reality. The surface of the pin appears rough and uneven when observed through the lens of a bacterium. The blunt tip, which would go unnoticed by our eyes alone, becomes prominent in this microscopic landscape. Magnified to x1600 and printed at 10cm high, every detail is brought to life with astonishing clarity. The vibrant orange hue highlights the presence of multiple bacterial organisms that have made their home on this seemingly innocuous object. Each bacterium measures around 5 microns in length while the tip spans approximately 30 microns across—tiny dimensions that emphasize their remarkable ability to thrive in even the most unexpected places. This mesmerizing image serves as a reminder of how much lies beyond what meets our gaze. It underscores both the complexity and beauty found within biological systems, showcasing nature's ingenuity at its finest. Through cutting-edge technology like scanning electron microscopy, scientists can unravel these hidden worlds and expand our understanding of microbial life—a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about all things small yet significant.
