Pardon my ignorance, but what is this?

Good question. Inquiring minds want to know. This goes into the who would have ever thought this is what it is.

That photo is an astonishing image of a pregnant pony uterus that has been selected as the overall winner for the 2015 Wellcome Image Awards. The photograph was taken by Michael Frank, and is of an historic specimen from the Lanyon Anatomy Museum of the Royal Veterinary College in London. It shows the preserved uterus of a New Forest pony, approximately five months into the pregnancy, with the developing foetus still attached. Picture Editor of BBC Focus magazine, James Cutmore, who was a member of the judging panel, said: “As far as standout images go, the image of the horse’s uterus with the foetus still inside was incredible and just sticks in my mind. It evokes many different emotions at once. It’s fascinating, sad, macabre, almost brutal. Yet the subject is also delicate, detailed and beautiful. The image shows us a large and magnificent creature reduced to this sad, fragile and half-formed creation, which I find very humbling.”

Thank you.

I think life, and all its stages, takes on more forms than we'll ever know.

To me, it looked like an alien from Independence Day...

But seriously, I thought it was some kind of seashell.
