20 Natural Objects That Look Really Disturbing up Close
It's time once again for the annual Nikon photomicrography competition, which just means a bunch of weird images that don't really look like anything specific but are apparently supposed to be very specific things.
At least in this gallery you know each image is guaranteed to be genuine and brand new. No regurgitated junk here. Just pure, fresh, amazing photography from a bunch of nerds who like to tinker with cameras.
If you happen to see your own micropenis on this list, apologies for the mixup. We're still working out some of the kinks over here.
