Description:
Polarizing microscopical image of cave cricket sperm. The patterns of birefringence in the upper half of the sperm displays the different regions of the DNA. The dark region below the middle of the sperm has been irradiated with UV. The five images were taken at different rotational angles of the compensator, which allow light of different polarizations to pass through.
