 |
|
I recently returned from a holiday in Wales where my wife and I discovered a real-life dinosaur park (well, life-sized replicas anyway) situated in the environs of an amazing cave network known broadly as Dan-Yr-Ogof (that's the name of the first of the three cave systems discovered on the site in 1912).
I've posted pictures and written about it over on my blog - http://www.heropress.net/2008/09/i-have-been-to-hollow-earth.html - because it really fired my enthusiasm and imagination for all-things HEX-related.
Come on, dinosaurs and underground exploration in one place... what could be more HEX? (Of course there were no Nazis aound to feed to the dinosaurs...)

Nicely done, intrepid explorer! Live photos of animals in their natural environment. Challenger may have been laughed off the stage, but not you!
Nice work! That looks like it was a ton of fun! Rep point to you for your trouble and for sharing!

Thank you, Doctor. It's always an honour to be mentioned in the same rarified atmosphere as the great Professor Challenger!

Rep! I especially love the shot of the brontosaurus neck/head from the perspective of standing at its feet  And caves are always fun.
