Mosquito Eyes Magnified With FEI Quanta Microscope

FEI Quanta microscope provided us a nice image at how a mosquito eye looks like when magnified. The description, from the original posting:

“Frontal view to the compound eyes of a mosquito. The surface of each single eye has a rough appearance which gives them a violet shimmer in real life. Between and above the eyes fine scales, similar to the ones at butterflies can be seen.”
