EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of human hair. Captured through polarised light microscopy, this image showcases the central region of a hair strand known as the medulla, revealing its unique speckled appearance. The medulla is encased by the cortex, which houses the pigments responsible for our hair's coloration. Finally, forming an outer protective layer is the cuticle, serving as a shield against external elements. At a magnification of x200 and printed at 35mm size, this photograph allows us to appreciate the remarkable complexity hidden within something as seemingly ordinary as a single strand of hair. It serves as a reminder that even in our everyday experiences, there lies an extraordinary world waiting to be explored. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this image holds great scientific value by providing valuable insights into human anatomy and shedding light on various aspects related to hair structure and composition.
