The new image of the month on Micronaut.ch shows the surface of a mosquito egg (Culex pipiens). European mosquitoes lay their water-repellent eggs directly onto the water surface, where they form large aggregations ('egg-rafts'). To avoid drowning, the eggs are equipped with a spectacular looking superhydrophobic surface. High-tech designed by nature... enjoy!

New Apprentice...
Cleo (-patra) eagerly follows any movements of the cursor, during the coloration process. Ready to catch unsuspecting prey, no matter how small (actually, the image section I was working on at that time, was magnified more than 8'000-times).
