A Closer Look at the Local Ecosystem

Discover the highly specialized creatures that inhabit the wild natural environment at the European XFEL X-ray laser: iridescent beetles, predatory flies, wild bees, and wasps.

Jan Tolkiehn, an engineer at European XFEL and a photographer, takes you on a journey of discovery to meet the smallest residents on campus: the insects. Next door at the Lighthouse, you can experience the diverse animal world through his fascinating macro photographs.
