Outback Pictures

We have found a fossil! How exciting!


Mungo National Park
looking for something and I found it!




Silverton Popular destination for movie makers. This near-ghost is town full of interesting arts and craft shops
Once a thriving mining centre of 3000 Silverton is now a virtual ghost town of about 50 inhabitants with a number of historic buildings

The Willandra Lakes World Heritage area, with Mungo National Park at its centre, maintains a continuous record of human occupation stretching back well over 40,000 years. Rain and wind has uncovered ancient fireplaces and hearths, as well as calcified plant matter, artefacts, stone tools and animal bones.

Just outside Broken Hill in The Living Desert Nature Park is the best collection of sculptures this side of Stonehenge. Twelve sandstone obelisks, up to 3m (10 ft.) high and carved totemlike by artists from as far away as Georgia, Syria, Mexico, and the Tiwi Islands, make up the Sculpture Symposium.

Muy bacanas las fotos. Pero revisá tu definición de fósil.
Me antojaron de desierto.

Un abrazo.
