    i love those fetus pictures, I'm reading about how they were taken. They are so well done I was a bit scared of what the answer would be at first. Apparently they are Ua combination of three-dimensional ultrasound scans, computer graphics and tiny cameras.

    I'm sorry, but it was the grasshopper picture that just wowed me. Totally awesome.
