EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Baculites (Ammonite) shells, originating from the Cretaceous era. Against a pristine white background, these three fossilized mollusc specimens take center stage in this studio shot. The vertical composition allows for a detailed examination of their unique features and exquisite spiral patterns. As remnants of prehistoric sea life, these ammonites offer us a glimpse into the ancient world that existed millions of years ago. With their perfectly preserved form and delicate ridges, they serve as remarkable examples of palaeobiology. These fossils were once living creatures known as ammonoids, specifically belonging to the genus Baculites. The cut-out presentation further emphasizes their individuality and draws attention to every minute detail etched on their surfaces. This photograph is not only an aesthetic delight but also serves as an educational tool for enthusiasts and researchers alike. Colin Keates' skillful capture highlights both the scientific significance and artistic appeal of these baculite shells. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness the wonders that thrived beneath ancient seas during the Cretaceous period. Universal Images Group (UIG) has provided us with yet another extraordinary image that encapsulates nature's enduring marvels. Whether displayed in a museum or cherished within private collections, this print is sure to evoke curiosity about our planet's rich history and its fascinating inhabitants from long ago.
