In September of 2012 I visited a friend and spent 2 weeks there. We were able to take day-trips to Florence, Rome and other places. All pictures were taken with a 6mp Canon Digital Rebel dSLR.
One of our side-trips was to the hilltop town of Vetulonia. They have a wonderful museum filled with artifacts dating back to pre-Roman Etruscan times.

Produced by maxing out Picasa 2's Fill Light slider on a severely underexposed image. I know - the picture still sucks, but I found the JPEG artifacts interesting (look at larger size).
A disturbed small part of the Galop Canal at Cardinal, Ontario. While in its day, this was a very busy place with ships going through the locks and canals in their journeys to and from Montreal. Now it is a peaceful place for the fisherman to try his rod and line, or for a family to use the grassed area for a picnic. It is possible to sit quietly now and imagine the noise and commotion when the lakers did pass through, whether sail or steam driven vessels
The scene of this world is changing - still!

Artifact as recovered by Carleton Wereley, circa 1913. He claimed it was a piece broken off a copper statue of a complete squid. The squid's suckers were all rubies. One is missing from this broken piece and was allegedly lost during 'some trouble' deep under the sea off the coast of Halifax, NB. Wereley affirmed this artifact could not have been hewn by human hands and postulates it was made by undersea creatures. The rest of the statue and its location have never been found and Carleton Wereley himself disappeared mysteriously in the mid 1920's.
The prepared artifact is now in the possession of the American Smithsonian Institute and has remained 'off display' for approximately 90 years.
Approximate dimensions: 5.5 x 1 x 0.25"

Part of Phossils, where I attempt to mimic geological time, as pressure and heat, with earth and clay – through chemical interactions or specialized machinery – on laptops and tablets, then display where that potential lies, as petrified-like LCDs or mangled post-exploded batteries, on pedestals in a gallery.
