EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Slit snail shell, belonging to the species Bayerotrochus boucheti. With its striking spiral pattern and contrasting black background, this image truly captures the essence of nature's artistry. The slit snail is a marine gastropod mollusc that can be found off Norfolk Ridge in New Caledonia, located in the southwest Pacific Ocean. Measuring 84mm in diameter and standing at 70mm tall, this particular specimen exemplifies the elegance and symmetry seen within aquatic invertebrates. Through this still life composition, we are invited to appreciate the wonders of biology and marine life. The round shape of the shell draws our attention to its delicate curves and mesmerizing patterns. Each line on its surface tells a story of growth and adaptation within its oceanic habitat. This photograph serves as a reminder of the vast biodiversity present beneath our oceans' depths. It highlights not only the unique characteristics of mollusks but also their importance within ecosystems as essential contributors to marine biology. Gilles Mermet from Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this moment frozen in time, allowing us to admire every detail with precision. This print is perfect for those who seek inspiration from nature's creations or have an affinity for zoology and wildlife photography enthusiasts alike.
