For real: this dip before that slightly higher-sloped point up ahead is the crater of an extinct volcano. And they built a church (and parking lot) here.
The wollemi pine reaches back to prehistoric times. It was thought to be extinct but was discovered in an isolated valley in the Wollemi National Park 200km from Sydney. The location is secret but a number of cuttings were taken from the original trees and have been grown and are now available to the general public.

An exhibition by Grégory Chatonsky and Dominique Sirois on posthuman archeology.
Finally finished the packaging for an exchange project started in 2007. Oy vey.
Had much greater ambitions for the design and printing of said packaging, but scaled them down in favor of finishing before the year's end.
Will now mail copies to the participants.

We took a tour to see the sunrise and then bike down the volcano, about 35 miles. This is an extinct volcano on Maui, about 10,000 feet high. The temperature was around 40F degree with the wind blowing 30 miles an hour. I could barely hold my hands steady.
No post-edit, no crop.

Selon les scientifiques, l’activité humaine est responsable de la plus grande extinction d’espèces depuis celle des dinosaures. La destruction et la dégradation des habitats sont la principale cause de cette décimation. L’industrialisation, l’augmentation de la population, la surexploitation aux fins de productions alimentaires, la pollution et le commerce des animaux accélèrent le processus de destruction. Pour les générations futures, la réduction galopante du nombre d’espèce observée actuellement est une perte irremplaçable.
