FOSSILS by sangwann

FOSSILS

Shot taken on Easter Monday, the last day of our vacation in Gozo.
From Xwejni Bay we went for a walk along the coast road. The surface layer of the rocks is all fossils. Beneath this layer the rock is soft – Upper Coralline Limestone (I think) - and many parts have been eroded by the sea but this bit still stands out proud.
I didn’t stay long at the dentist’s. All’s well, just replacement of one lost filling.
Many thanks for looking and for all the lovely comments and the fav's on yesterday's picture. Very much appreciated.
I gather this is where your last shot was Dione, very nice textures, lighting and shadows. Glad the dentist visit wasn't too bad.

This looks like a head of somebody (with terrible haircut though) looking at the sea. Very cool.

Interesting capture of that eroded rock. Time is eroding my teeth so I go in for the 4th time next week. Looks like a serious case of rock decay 8-)
