The Macro Detail of Butterfly Wings

Butterflies showcase a colorful splendor on their wings as they dance around a field of flowers. What would they look like up close? We mean really close.

Photographer Linden Gledhill took these remarkable magnified photographs of butterfly wings. The colorful scales that make up the wings have a greta iridescent quality.

Taken at 7-10x magnification. Isn’t nature amazing?
