Photographer Levon Biss has a remarkable collection of insect photography, each photo so detailed that it’s made up of thousands of individual images. The result is something absolutely museum-worthy, and showcases the colorful detail and design of Earth’s special insect species. It’s always nice to come across work that is so full of dedication and inspiration, and also furthering scientific knowledge and discovery. via Colossal:
