A tiny planet panorama, from the top of a cinder cone in the Craters of the Moon national park in Idaho. Created from 33 images, stitched with MicroSoft ICE, processed with Photoshop, warped into a tiny planet with Photoshop.

Made from this panorama:




I know it doesn't look like it, but I was standing at the top of a cinder cone, at the end of this trail:



And looking back down from about 2/3 of the way up:

Skimmers, pano by cropping a scan that didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped (that's an apology for the low IQ of the image)

I know I said that the last image from Snowdonia was the last but I'm going to post another couple anyway

Wow, 33 images! Well done - an interesting feature, too. We don't have anything like active vulcanism in mainland Australia.

Well, the volcanic activity hasn't been active recently, although it is part of the current epoch, the Holocene period.

From Wikipedia:

QuoteQuote:
The Craters of the Moon Lava Field spreads across 618 square miles (1,601 km2) and is the largest mostly Holocene-aged basaltic lava field in the contiguous United States.[6] The Monument and Preserve contain more than 25 volcanic cones, including outstanding examples of spatter cones.[7] The 60 distinct solidified lava flows that form the Craters of the Moon Lava Field range in age from 15,000 to just 2,000 years.[8] The Kings Bowl and Wapi lava fields, both about 2,200 years old, are part of the National Preserve.

This lava field is the largest of several large beds of lava that erupted from the 53-mile (85 km) south-east to north-west trending Great Rift volcanic zone,[9] a line of weakness in the Earth's crust. Together with fields from other fissures they make up the Lava Beds of Idaho, which in turn are in the much larger Snake River Plain volcanic province. The Great Rift extends across almost the entire Snake River Plain.
Australia has it's share of volcanic activity, although most from much farther in the past, around 20 to 25 million years ago, there are some volcanoes that are from the current epoch, around 7,000 years old.

Sure. For it to still be a mostly bare cinder cone, it's likely to be pretty recent.

Sure, I've spent a lot of time hiking around Mount Warning and the Border Ranges, all of which were part of a single volcano which was active about 23 million years ago. It was a very flat shield volcano similar to some in Hawaii. There's a crater field in Victoria which is a lot more recent. There's plenty of evidence of volcanoes all up and down the east coast in the form of scoria and basaltic columns. The coolest one is Mount Scoria in Queensland which has rocks that ring like a bell when stuck. These days the activity is over in New Zealand. The only volcano on Australia territory I can think of is Big Ben on Heard Island near Antarctica.

Bite size. Pano by cropping. There are fossil crocs that are much larger.

That might be modelled on the 5 metre croc that was found in the NT last year. I remember reading about fossil monitor lizards (goannas) which were over seven metres long (25 feet). Fossil crocs were bigger.

Maybe, although I think the model in the photograph has been there for quite a while.
Look at the reconstructed Sarcosuchus in an image I recently posted on the Alphabet Race thread.
