Ovum

A Female Grey Seal (Halichoerus grypus) plunges into a pool left by the retreating tide at Horsey, Norfolk, England. She's built up her reserves of blubber throughout pregnancy to sustain herself and her new born pup. As she reaches the height of her undulations she appears at her most rotund. Her roundnes is empahasised by her symbolic egg shaped reflection just before the image is lost to the splashing water.
