Images of butterfly wings at the microscopic scale are stunning, and at the nanoscopic scale they become otherworldly. Shot at two cutting-edge research labs, the pictures of Nanoscapes were taken with light and electron microscopes at magnifications up to 50,000x. The elaborate nanoscopic topography of butterfly wings has produced a wealth of data on structural coloration. The film is an artistic rendering of exciting new research on how butterflies build these remarkable, infinitesimal landscapes.
