Nikon’s 50th Small World Photomicrography Competition

Celebrating it’s 50th birthday, the Nikon Small World Competition first began in 1975 and is still supporting and highlighting photomicrographers from a wide array of scientific disciplines. COLOSSAL shares details.

From seeds to slime molds to spider eyes, the foremost entries in Nikon’s Small World 2024 Photomicrography Competition (previously) illuminate details invisible to the naked eye. This year, jurors sifted through more than 2,000 entries from 80 countries.
