Underground Opal Mining, Lightning Ridge, N.S.W., Australia
This is really something very very special and
although Marly didn't get to see these exact events, he saw many of them and
was taken onboard an Agi and around the Agi site which is something no tourist is allowed to do - Marly received very special treatment, including a special gift of this sequence of photos from Justine, from The Opal Bin, a professional photographer before coming to The Ridge.
Justine kindly gave me these photos because she, like so many others, fell in
love with Marly.
