Backyard Fossils (I'm not the only fossil up here!)

Rainy day....tried to take photos outside, but everytime I'd head out it would
start raining....so thought you might like to see some of our fossils. When I
started gardening here I dug up so many, and when we have a rain the grandchildren
and I go fossil hunting. There are hundreds of fossilized oyster shells....it is so
hard to imagine that this ridge overlooking the valley was once underwater. Amazing!

I just noticed...the one on the right almost looks like a prehistoric face.

Nikon Coolpix 4500
1/8s f/3.6 at 17.7mm iso100 full exif

I have been trying to comment on this shot for a while tonight but pbase is still buggy. I think this looks great and you managed such lush color.
