Tamara Staples is the photographer behind these peculiar portraits of spectacular chickens. She first encountered the regal looking birds when attending a poultry show.

The Hawaiian Bobtail Squid, Euprymna scolopes, has a clever way of duping predators during its nightly activities. It uses a symbiotic luminescent bacteria, Vibrio fischeri, to light up its underside, so that upwards-looking predators don’t see a dark, edible form silhouetted against a moonlit or starlit sky. Instead, hungry sharks or other fish see only sky. The squid is invisible. This little magnificent beast helps us understand how our own bacteria symbiosis works. Kudos to you, beautiful squid!

Stranger Visions is an art project which tries to determine what we look like based on a single strand of hair.
How much information about ourselves do we leave behind in public, as we shed saliva, hair, and sweat throughout the day? It’s a question that drives the artwork of Heather Dewey-Hagborg, whose project Stranger Visions reconstructs the faces of the anonymous as 3-D printed sculptures, using genetic detritus found in chewing gum, cigarette butts, and wads of hair around New York City.
