Ammonite Cretaceous Cross Section Extinct Fossil Prehistoric Era Shell Spiral
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable beauty and intricate details of an Oxynoticeras: Pyritized Ammonite shell fossil. Against a clean white background, this studio shot captures the essence of this ancient relic from the prehistoric era. The perfectly preserved spiral shape of the shell is truly mesmerizing, drawing our attention to its exquisite symmetry. The pyritization process has transformed this ammonite shell into a stunning work of art. The shimmering golden hues created by the presence of pyrite add a touch of mystique to this already fascinating specimen. Its cross-section reveals intricate chambers that once housed the creature within, providing us with a glimpse into life millions of years ago. As we gaze upon this single object, we are transported back in time to when these magnificent creatures roamed the Earth during the Cretaceous period. Their extinction may have occurred long ago, but their legacy lives on through fossils like these. Colin Keates' masterful photography skillfully captures every minute detail and texture present in this fossilized treasure. This image serves as a reminder not only of our planet's rich history but also highlights nature's ability to create works of art that transcend time itself. Whether displayed in a museum or cherished in private collections, this print invites us to marvel at the wonders that lie hidden beneath Earth's surface and sparks curiosity about what other secrets await discovery in our world's vast geological past.
