The image reveals the head of the Gammarus pulex species, highlighting its remarkable large eyes against a striking black background. With a maximum length of 35 millimeters, these freshwater shrimps are known for their diverse diet consisting of decomposing vegetation, bacteria, and algae. To obtain their nourishment, they employ their first two pairs of legs to skillfully grasp onto food particles. The magnification level used for this photograph is x30 when printed at 10 centimeters wide. Its vibrant colors bring forth an artistic element while maintaining scientific accuracy. This stunning portrayal offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate the beauty and complexity found within nature's smallest creatures. From a zoological perspective, this image provides valuable insights into the anatomy and behavior of crustaceans in aquatic environments. The antennae showcased in this SEM capture exemplify one of the distinguishing features that enable these arthropods to navigate their surroundings effectively. Steve Gschmeissner's expertise as a photographer shines through in his ability to capture such incredible detail and present it with aesthetic finesse.
