  Pictures Of Sand Under A Microscope

  Viewed at a magnification of over 250 times real life, tiny grains of sand are shown to be delicate, colourful structures as unique as snowflakes.

  When seen well beyond the limits of human eyesight, the miniature particles are exposed as fragments of crystals, spiral fragments of shells and crumbs of volcanic rock.

  It is incredible to think when you are walking on the beach you are standing on these tiny treasures.
