Guy Iannuzzi has been creating enormous photomicrographs of these fossilized insects in ancient amber for the last decade utilizing Russian and British optical imaging equipment and advanced imaging software. Each piece is modified extensively, in most cases assembled out of hundreds of images, painstakingly built of different microscopic layers, each a few microns thick. He then images these fossilized insects into strikingly massive wall-sized constructs. Among other things, his unique art form is intended to be a study in scale. These images are lyrical impressions of ancient moments - fragments in time.

In 1999 he acquired a Russian inspection microscope, attached a video CCD head to it, and painstakingly assembled large photographs from hundreds and thousands of extremely small 640x480 pixel images. Within a few years he had some of his photographs shown in Philadelphia and at a BIOCOM conference in San Diego. He also entered the National Science Foundation’s Visualization competition in 2003 and was selected as one of 12 finalists.

In 2009, after a break of five years, Guy purchased a another inspection microscope (British) with better lighting and a specimen stage, along with a new Nikon D3000 camera and more advanced processing software. The software included: Photoshop, Helicon Focus, Nikon CameraControl Pro, and Nikon NKVX. This new equipment made a big difference in his work, the significantly improved resolution enabling sharper images and more subtlety. This also resulted in the creation of enormous files, some nearly a gigabyte in size.
