Welcome to the STARKFX Image Gallery
Beautiful images of scientific subjects, mathematical concepts, technological marvels or just natural beauty -or in some cases, terrible awe inspiring images.
Images of Science, Nature, Beauty or anything else we find Visually Wonderous
Microscope images, telescope images, infrared images, UV images -but mostly regular old digital camera images.
