Animal ou minéral, voilà la question... Les deux! Parce que le concours Photohunt de cette semaine donne un point de plus si un animal se trouve avec le minéral... Hehehehehe! Futée....
Voici donc une photo de fossile de Trilobite, provenant du Maroc. C'est sans doute la plus vieille chose qu'il y a chez moi. Elle date de 450 millions d'années (période ordivicienne). :) Derrière le trilobite se trouve un poisson fossile trouvé dans le Wyoming, à Lincoln City. Il est beaucoup moins vieux. Il provient de la période éocène, il y a à peine 50 millions d'années.
Animal or mineral, that is the question... Both! Because the Photohunt of this week gives 1 bonus point if there is an animal with the mineral. Hehheheheh! Wise I am...
Here is a photography of the oldest thing in my house. A fossil Trilobite from Morocco from the Ordivician Period. About 450 millions years ago. Behind, you can see a fossil fish from the Eocene Period. It has been found in Lincoln City, in Wyoming. And it is a lot more recent. It is about 50 millions years old.

This is so cool, and beautifully photographed!
Amazing how you turned it into a landscape!
Thanks girls! The little fish fossil is so nice. I am going to try to show you a pic. I have problems with blogger those days...
Ha! Here it is!
I've loved seeing all the contributions to this PhotoHunt. How can we even TRY to comprehend that kind of age that you post about here! Man. That's OLD.
I know you will find it strange, but when I touch it, I can FEEL the life of the little fish... If you perceive the Universe as an hologram (everything and every moments are everywhere all the time) it makes sense. If you want to read a good book about that (it gives some hints about how the Universe could work) read "The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot. Not an easy book, but fascinating! :)
