Aliens Among Us : Extraordinary Portraits of Ordinary Bugs, Hardback Book

Aliens Among Us : Extraordinary Portraits of Ordinary Bugs Hardback

Hardback

Description

Over the course of his photography career, Daniel Kariko came to realise that many of his most stunning subjects could be found in his own home.

Kariko utilises a combination of a Scanning Electron Microscope and optical Stereo Microscope to achieve a portrait-like effect for insects and arthropods.

Vibrant in colour and surprising in personality, these images reveal such details as the glittering eyes of a horsefly, the strong legs of a centipede and the fetching smile of a honeybee.

Each photograph comes with a full-body illustration from artist Isaac Talley and character descriptions from entomologist Tim Christensen.

Blurring the lines of art and science, Aliens Among Us is a guidebook for anyone interested in putting a face to the creepy-crawlies under the couch.
