Figure 1 – What is it? (c) DE Wolf 2018

I like to photograph objects and optical effects that seem puzzles and abstractions. So here we have a collection of hexagons and bright spots, of shadows and illuminations, of rings and connecting lines. It reminds me of a video that I once saw, an electron micrograph of single Uranium atoms diffusing about randomly. And you might think that it is something that I took in the laboratory, but is it? And most significantly what is it?
