Macro photography unearths the rare beauty and magic of a butterfly’s wing, in this series by Chris Perani. Nature works in extraordinary ways, and butterflies are no exception. The iridescence of their wings is made possible through photonics crystals, which are optical nanostructures that cause the coloration and reflection that we see in their beautiful wings. Take a look at the impressive detail in the collection below.

Wow this is incredible, I have never seen a butterfly wing in such detail, and never imagined it would be like this! 😮 May I ask what your setup was for these please?
Glorious!
