There You Are -- Photo of a Single Strontium Atom

An image of a single positively charged Strontium atom, held nearly motionless by electric fields, has won the overall prize in a science photography competition organized by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) in the UK. The photo by David Nadlinger, from the University of Oxford, shows the atom held by the fields emanating from the metal electrodes surrounding it.
