CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE BUG KIND
THIS alien-like bug would look more at home in outer-space but it can actually be found wriggling around here on Earth. The creepy-crawly bears a striking resemblance to the murderous creatures from the film Alien. However the insect’s intricate detail can not be seen by the human eye. Photographer Woe Hendrick explains how you need specialist kit to make this extraterrestrial sighting.
