There are not many locations in Australia where dinosaur fossils are to be found, but the south Gippsland coast has a spot where the university teams come each summer to recover what the Winter’s waves have uncovered.<\/p>\n

Sorry, unfortunately I didn’t go digging for fossils, I left that to the pros!<\/p>\n

While exploring the coast for my Milky Way shot, I enjoyed being able to walk along the lovely eroded sandstone formations and try to find patterns which sparked with my visual cortex.<\/p>\n

Smiling dog skull?<\/p>\n

\"sandstone<\/a><\/p>\n

Sunbather massaging suntan lotion onto his partner’s back … or an anteater riding a horse, jumping over a snake?<\/p>\n

\"sandstone<\/a><\/p>\n

And this one is just colors and textures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
