Flower in the Desert

Flower in the Desert

Yukari Dan, Iwao Yamazaki, Tsuneo Akiba (Hitachi Instrument Engineering Co.,Ltd.)

A passionate flower blooms between rugged rocks. In fact, the features in the image are gatherings of minute ice crystals which formed in the specimen chamber of a scanning electron microscope. The beauty did not last long: The rocks disappeared in the surrounding atmosphere of 10^-3Pa and temperatures below-85 due to sublimation.
At 51st photo contest hosted by the Japanese Society of Electron Microscopy in 1995.
