Little people

Man is so conceited that he thinks he is made in the image of God. Rather, God was created in the image of man. With the advent in science and technology, we are discovering new things that we didn't even know existed. Technology mutates and evolves faster than we can say 'wow'. We are so enamoured with big things that we neglect the tiny. Hubble's telescope is famous because it can look into the wide cosmos, and even stared back at the 'eye of god'. With microscopic photography, we can spy on the microcosmos, making its inhabitants appear larger than life, both their's and ours. One website which 'weds' science with art is the Eye of Science project

You can see a sperm entering an ovum, or the scales that make up the beautiful wings of a butterfly. Did you realise the yucky black/green fungus growing on the bread is actually a beautiful, mind boggling network? Pretty pictures of the invisible world.

I agree with the thing about beauty. You know, humanity is so wrapped up in itself that it never even pauses to look at what is before it, or what it has created. Beauty is everywhere.
