Cool, I have always liked those pictures of bright-coloured minerals on dull brown or grey rocks. Ever heard about Allihies, Ireland? It used to be an old copper mining village. The shafts, entrances and engine houses are surrounded by fences, but in the museum you can see pictures of the inside: totaly green, the walls, the "roof" and the floor. If you find more of these spots, I'd like to see them.
