EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Retiolites (Graptolite) fossil on shale, dating back to the Silurian era. The intricate pattern of this ancient invertebrate is beautifully preserved against a clean white background, creating a striking contrast that draws the viewer's attention. Expertly captured in a studio setting by photographer Colin Keates, this image allows us to appreciate the delicate details and unique characteristics of this prehistoric rock formation. As we gaze upon this single object, we are transported back in time to an era when these fascinating creatures roamed the Earth. The significance of this fossil goes beyond its aesthetic appeal; it holds great value for palaeontology enthusiasts and researchers alike. Its imprint serves as a tangible link to our planet's distant past and provides valuable insights into the evolution and biodiversity during the Silurian period. With no people present in the frame, our focus remains solely on this extraordinary piece of natural history. The presence of shale further adds to its authenticity, reminding us that it has endured millions of years before being discovered by human eyes. Colin Keates' skillful composition captures both scientific curiosity and artistic appreciation within a horizontal frame. This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) invites us to marvel at nature's wonders while igniting our imagination about life long gone but forever imprinted in stone.
