Photographing the Microscopic: Winners of Nikon Small World 2017 (24 photos)

Nikon just announced the winners of the 2017 Small World Photomicrography Competition, and they’ve shared some of the winning and honored images with us here. The contest invites photographers and scientists to submit images of all things visible under a microscope. More than 2,000 entries were received from 88 countries in 2017, the 43rd year of the competition.

The 12th place winner shows a closeup of the eye of an Opiliones (daddy longlegs) magnified 20x. (Charles Krebs, Issaquah, Washington)
