Great capture, Brett, and wonderful history!! Perfect lighting, tones and composition!! Wonderful history too! I'm so pleased to hear they preserved the remains!

Nadya Johnson August 03, 2009

Wow! SENSATIONAL, Brett! This is stunning! A fave for me - and something else to watch for on Nat Geo or Discover! (Now and then they do have fascinating programs on Australia so I wouldn't be surprised if they feature this particular story! Did you know your Mega-beasts were all indigenous - not the same as ours, at all? Speaking here of the Pleistocene... giant kangaroos and all ??? ) Anyway, terrific shot! #7812561
