Scientists: Nikon wants your tiny photos

Small World, Nikon's annual micro-photography contest, has just opened up again. Nikon asks the world's scientists to affix cameras to their microscopes and shoot the beauty that we're too big to see.

Small World is regarded as the leading forum for showcasing the beauty and complexity of life as seen through the light microscope. For over 30 years, Nikon has rewarded the world's best photomicrographers who make critically important scientific contributions to life sciences, bio-research and materials science.
