A flatbed scanner can create some amazingly clear images, which I describe in my book. Here, I simply placed a piece of agate on my scanner and accurately set the resolution to see small details. Felice Frankel
Researchers at MIT fabricated very small material they call “nano yarn.” This image is a visual metaphor, using coiling fabric to suggest the structure of the “yarn.” Felice Frankel
A microscopic image of the tiny wells in a device made to analyze cellular chemistry. I used a special color technique to emphasize surface structure. Felice Frankel
The inside of a music box is a metaphor to suggest the binary language of computers: on or off, 1 or 0. Felice Frankel
Simply pouring small acrylic balls onto two plates provides an illustration for how perfectly self-assembled they become. Felice Frankel
Between a sandwich of two small discs are molecules – block copolymers – that change color. This is the last of a series of images take over a 24-hour period. Felice Frankel
I photographed a simple drop of water to suggest all the chemistry and physics happening on the surface of that drop in order for it to form. Felice Frankel
Growing two kinds of yeast colonies in the same Petri dish was a way to more clearly show their morphological differences. Felice Frankel
