Mosquito wing. Macrophotograph of the wing of a mosquito, with iridescence visible. Iridescence is the property of certain surfaces to change colour depending on the angle of light refraction or reflection, or the angle of view. Insect wings are thin membranous structures strengthened by a network of veins. Magnification: x29 when printed at 10 centimetres across.
