EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of Potamomya plana (River clam) shells on a slab, hailing from the Eocene era. Against a pristine white background, these ancient treasures take center stage in this studio shot. Each shell is meticulously captured, revealing intricate details and textures that have withstood the test of time. The composition features a large group of these bivalve mollusks arranged on a rock slab, creating an enchanting display of nature's artistry. The horizontal alignment adds to the visual appeal, allowing us to appreciate the symmetrical patterns and unique shapes of each individual shell. As we gaze upon this fossilized wonder, we are transported back millions of years to the prehistoric era when these creatures thrived in rivers and waterways. The cut-out style further emphasizes their significance as relics from another time. Colin Keates has masterfully captured not only the physicality but also the essence of these river clams through his lens. This photograph serves as a testament to both their enduring existence and our fascination with paleobiology. With no people present in this image, our attention is solely focused on these remarkable specimens. It reminds us that even without human intervention or commercial use, nature's creations can leave an indelible mark on our world – one that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
