Glass House Rocks, Narooma, NSW

This shot was taken as the sun was slowly sinking to the west as we meandered slowly along this beautiful majestic coastline of southern NSW.

 

The rocks you are looking at here are incomprehensibly ancient. According to the Geological Society of Australia, Narooma Chert (the dark material in the Glasshouse Rocks, which is hard, fine-grained sedimentary rock) was deposited on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean over a period of 50 million years from around 490 million years ago!!!!!
