EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time, unveiling a remarkable piece of Earth's history. Preserved within the karst limestone rock of Terenes, Asturias, Spain, lies a 150 million-year-old fossilised footprint (ichnite) of a theropod dinosaur. The intricate details etched into the stone serve as an ancient testament to the existence and dominance of these prehistoric creatures. The image showcases the sheer magnitude and grandeur of this fossilised relic against its natural backdrop. The rugged texture and earthy tones of the limestone perfectly complement the delicate imprints left by this long-extinct predator. As we gaze upon this vertical composition captured by Nick Upton/Robert Harding, we are transported to a time when dinosaurs roamed freely across Europe. The photograph not only highlights nature's ability to preserve such extraordinary remnants but also serves as a reminder that our world has undergone immense transformations throughout millions of years. It invites us to marvel at the wonders hidden beneath our feet and encourages exploration beyond what meets the eye. For those with an insatiable curiosity for paleontology or simply seeking awe-inspiring travel destinations, Terenes becomes an alluring site worth visiting. This snapshot encapsulates both scientific significance and artistic beauty—a visual homage to one of Earth's most enthralling chapters: the reign of dinosaurs.
