Fossilised ammonite shell among pebbles
Ammonite fossils. View of four fossil ammonites among pebbles. The spiral shells can be clearly seen. Ammonites are a type of extinct cephalopod mollusc, resembling a squid-like animal within a coiled shell. The many chambered shell protected the delicate organs of the mollusc, and was also used for buoyancy when some of the chambers were pumped full of air. Ammonites lived from the Devonian period (approximately 400 million years ago) to the end of the Cretaceous period (64 million years ago)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty of a fossilised ammonite shell amidst a collection of pebbles. The four ammonites, with their distinct spiral shells, are prominently displayed against the backdrop of smooth stones. Ammonites, fascinating creatures from ancient times, were cephalopod molluscs that resembled squid-like animals residing within coiled shells. These intricate shells served as protective chambers for the delicate organs of these extinct molluscs and also provided buoyancy when certain chambers were filled with air. It is truly remarkable to observe how nature has preserved these relics from millions of years ago. Ammonites thrived during the Devonian period around 400 million years ago until their extinction at the end of the Cretaceous period approximately 64 million years ago. This photograph not only captures their exquisite form but also serves as a window into Earth's prehistoric past. The image reminds us of the vastness and diversity present in our planet's history. It sparks curiosity about life forms that once roamed our oceans and invites contemplation on how they fit into our understanding of evolution and geological time scales. Science Photo Library brings this extraordinary snapshot to life, allowing us to appreciate both its scientific significance and aesthetic appeal without any commercial intent.
