They were taken by Professor Jacques Donnez of the Catholic University in Louvain, Belgium. He was about to peform a partiel hysterectomy on a 45-year-old woman when he noticed the follicle—so he stopped and snapped come photos. Too cool.
Found at The Sideshow.

You know, seeing photos like this makes me realize how abstracted some of this gets for me. I mean, I know about ovaries, and the follicle, and the release of the egg, ect. But never did I know it was THAT BIG, and the egg looked like a drop of honey. What an absolute trip.
Nice catch sir.
