Mistaken Point Fossils Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland

I came upon a place in Newfoundland I’ve been waiting to see for ages, a place that certainly wasn’t waiting for me given it’s full of fossils that are up to 575 million years old. This is long before trees existed on land and fish were found in the ocean. These first multicellular organisms are the first things to experience this world!

I used an off camera flash to highlight the textures of the fossils. I’m very happy with the result!
