Artist uses NASA technology to capture the cosmic beauty of flowers in extreme detail

Flowers look like solar flares and stellar eruptions when you photograph them in intense detail, using techniques developed by NASA for imaging the surface of Mars. Photographer David Leaser developed a new process, based on NASA’s tech among other things, which he uses to capture the unsettling beauty of flowers up close. You can see every hair, every drop of nectar, and every line of a flower, from a bee’s eye view.
