| Shaw River, Pilbara, Western Australia |
We visited the Pilbara thanks to a geological fieldtrip associated with a conference. We went to very remote place to see amazing rock outcrops testifying of Earth's first oceans, Earth's first traces of life and just very old (> 3 billion years!) rocks of all types. Even if you are not a geologist, this region is beautiful and has amazing landscapes, fauna and flora. As soon as I have time I will build a page. In the meantime, some photos are posted here: http://community.webshots.com/user/oberger1 |
