Photographer Levon Biss’s project Extinct and Endangered: Insects in peril combines thousands of shots of insect specimens to create these startlingly clear images. Biss created 40 vivid portraits of endangered and extinct insect species by combining thousands of shots of specimens from the American Museum of Natural History, New York. He used a photo-stacking technique in which the images, captured via microscope objective lenses on a bespoke photo rig, are combined to produce final artwork with extreme resolution and detail.
