John Mangeri won the second place in the FZU Photo Competition for his image of a computational simulation of a BaTiO3 nanoparticle (see Figure 1). Alexey Bubnov got the 3rd–4th place for his image of a beautiful liquid crystal texture seen under polarized light microscope (see Figure 2).
Moreover, Vladimira Novotna and Alexey Bububnov obtained the 6th–12th place for other remarkable liquid crystal textures captured using polarized light microscope (see Figures 3–5) among 125 photos from 33 participants.
