Vue de l'inselberg des Nouragues depuis le camp juste après la pluie. L'eau de pluie ruisselle en cascade le long des parois. La couleur noire du granite est due à un biofilm principalement constitué de cyanobactéries. Cette colline granitique, apparue après plusieurs millions d'années d'érosion, culmine à plus de 400 mètres au-dessus d'un des deux sites (site inselberg) de la station des Nouragues en Guyane.

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
