The Stromatolites of Hamelin Pool.

I recently took a friend to Visit the Shark Bay area and we took the opportunity to stop in and see the Stromatolites in Hamelin Pool. More detailed information on these amazing wonders of nature and the history of the Shark Bay area can be found at the following links.

Here is a short video I shot that captures the beauty and tranquility of the Hamelin Pool Stromatolites.
The damage to the Stromatolites caused by early 1900's wool wagons is still visible today as wheel ruts across their fragile surface, damage caused in a time when we knew no better. Thankfully times have changed and the importance of these wonders of nature has been recognized and the area now has the protection of a World Heritage listing.
