Video Captures All Four Seasons Using Microscope and Macro Footage

The Beauty of Science project bid farewell to 2016 in an appropriately beautiful way. Using old footage and outtakes from their previous experiments, they illustrated all four Earthly seasons in a gorgeous end-of-year video that’ll have you itching to break out that macro lens.

“As a new year approached, we assembled our team to craft an end-of-year video that would capture viewers’ imagination,” writes Beauty of Science founder Dr. Yan Liang. “We came up with an idea to use the perspective of a microscope/macro-lens to present the four seasons in our human world.”

From obvious shots like snowflakes melting to stunning chemical reactions that look like the soft-breaking waves of summer and the orange leaves of autumn, Liang and his team really outdid themselves.
