ripples in time


da Vinci, one of the first in Europe to note sea fossils in high mountains, likened the tides to the breathing of the entire ocean, just as humans and animals breath. (precursor to GAIA i suppose)

Here on the side of Muckish (~600m) you can see the ripples of an ancient shoreline some 600 million years old...
