Limestone microfossils in a 0.03mm-thick slice of fossil-rich limestone viewed at high magnification, image area is 3mm across in real life. Packed with foraminifera and bryozoans (both microscopic aquatic organisms), these tiny shells and tests rained down to form a sediment on the sea floor of the shallow, tropical ocean that once ebbed and flowed over this very spot approximately 330 million years ago. Aldwark, Derbyshire, UK. January. 3mm across, x33 magnification when printed at 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
Journey Back in Time: Unveiling the Secrets of a Microscopic Underwater World!". Step into the fascinating realm of ancient oceans with this photo print! In this 0.03mm-thick slice of fossil-rich limestone, prepare to be amazed by the intricate beauty and diversity of limestone microfossils. Magnified at x33, these tiny shells and tests belong to foraminifera and bryozoans, two microscopic aquatic organisms that once thrived in a tropical ocean approximately 330 million years ago. As you gaze upon this image, imagine yourself transported to Aldwark, Derbyshire in January. Picture the shallow sea floor where these minuscule treasures rained down and settled over time. Each millimeter represents an entire world teeming with life from eons past. Marvel at the cryptic patterns formed by these geological remnants; it's like peering into an abstract masterpiece created by nature itself. The rock whispers tales of forgotten ecosystems and long-extinct species that once inhabited our planet. This print is not just a window into history but also a testament to the wonders of microscopy and paleontology. It invites us to appreciate the hidden marvels that exist beyond what our naked eyes can perceive. So hang this extraordinary piece on your wall as a reminder that even within something as small as a 3mm area lies an entire universe waiting to be discovered!
