If you've ever whiled away an afternoon staring at shapes in the clouds, you'll appreciate Molecular Expressions, a gallery of startling etchings from the surfaces of everyday microprocessors. The microscopic images were photographed with "reflected Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) microscopy and a retardation plate, sometimes with oblique illumination enhanced with filtered gels". Got that?
