EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning specimen of obsidian, an extrusive igneous rock and volcanic glass formed from cooled and solidified lava. The obsidian's inky black surface, smooth and glass-like in appearance, is a result of its rapid cooling, which prevents the formation of crystals and leaves behind a seamless, almost mirror-like finish. The specimen's unique properties make it a subject of fascination for geologists, mineralogists, and collectors alike. Obsidian's volcanic origin and lack of crystalline structure set it apart from other common igneous rocks, making it a true natural wonder. In this studio shot, the obsidian specimen is artfully arranged against a pristine white background, allowing its rich, dark color and intriguing texture to take center stage. The glassy surface reflects the surrounding light, creating an almost mesmerizing effect that invites closer inspection. Obsidian is formed during extrusive volcanic processes, where lava cools and solidifies rapidly on the Earth's surface. The absence of crystals in the rock is due to the rapid cooling, which leaves the silica-rich lava in a glassy state. This extrusion process results in a rock that is rich in silica and low in water content, giving it its distinctive glass-like appearance. The obsidian specimen in this print is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the natural world, and serves as a reminder of the dynamic geological processes that continue to shape our planet.
