Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Devonian slates C017 / 8322
Devonian slates. Close-up of banded Devonian coastal rocks and coloured slates at Polzeath, Cornwall, UK. Slate is a metamorphic rock. Most of the rocks we see at the Earths surface are sediments, sand and coloured muds which settle to the sea bed. These can be altered later as the heat and pressure of tectonic forces cause structural changes in the rocks (metamorphism). The slates vary in colour from black to yellow to brown to green to purple. Other formations and patterns arise when granite and quartz veins (white) penetrate surroundings rocks

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Devonian slates found along the coastal rocks of Polzeath, Cornwall in the United Kingdom. The intricate patterns and vibrant colors displayed in this close-up shot are a testament to the geological wonders that exist beneath our feet. Slate, a metamorphic rock formed from sediments such as sand and colored muds settling on the sea bed, undergoes structural changes due to tectonic forces like heat and pressure. As a result, these stunning slates exhibit an array of hues ranging from black to yellow, brown to green, and even purple. The image also highlights how granite and quartz veins penetrate through surrounding rocks, creating additional formations and patterns within the slate. The white veins serve as striking contrasts against the colorful backdrop. Dr Keith Wheeler's expert lens captures every detail with precision, emphasizing both the scientific significance and aesthetic appeal of these geological marvels. This photograph not only offers insight into Earth's dynamic processes but also serves as a visual feast for anyone fascinated by earth science or mineralogy. With its rich colors, intricate patterns, and coastal charm captured flawlessly in this image print from Science Photo Library, one cannot help but be captivated by nature's artistry on display at Polzeath beach.
