EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Steve Gschmeissner, we are presented with a mesmerizing display of science and medicine. The image showcases a propane gas flame emanating from a bunsen burner, serving as the backdrop for an extraordinary sight - a single red blood cell delicately positioned on the tip of a needle. The vibrant colors in this composite scanning electron micrograph (SEM) bring to life the intricate details of both the flame and the red blood cell. The false coloring technique used here adds depth and intensity to our understanding of these microscopic elements. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the crucial role that medical professionals play in our lives. It highlights their expertise in using specialized equipment like needles during various procedures related to human health care. Moreover, it underscores how advancements in technology, such as SEMs, enable us to explore and comprehend even the tiniest components within our bodies. The image also invites us into the realm of haematology or hematology - an essential branch of medicine focused on studying blood cells and disorders related to them. By capturing this solitary red blood cell under such magnification, Gschmeissner's work sparks curiosity about its function within our circulatory system. Overall, this striking print not only celebrates scientific exploration but also encourages contemplation about our own well-being through its fusion of artistry and knowledge.
