EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artefact from the ancient past - a fossil tooth of a mastodon, specifically Mammut Amercanum. The image is expertly captured in a studio setting against a striking black background, allowing the intricate details of this extinct creature's tooth to take center stage. The tooth itself serves as an awe-inspiring reminder of the geological period known as the Pleistocene, when these magnificent creatures roamed the Earth. Fossilised and preserved over time, it stands as an invaluable scientific specimen that offers insights into our planet's rich history. The colour contrasts within this photograph are visually stunning; with its dark hues juxtaposed against the vibrant white tones of the fossilized enamel. This combination further accentuates both its beauty and significance. Photographer CM Dixon skillfully captures every aspect of this fascinating object, ensuring that viewers can appreciate its form and texture up close. Through his lens, we gain access to an extraordinary piece of natural history that sparks curiosity about our planet's prehistoric inhabitants. While not intended for commercial use or promotion, this print holds immense value for those interested in science and geology. It serves as a testament to human fascination with uncovering secrets from our distant past and reminds us how much there is still left to discover about life on Earth before us.
