Photographer Rachel Sussman travels the world taking pictures of organisms that have been alive for thousands of years — from trees and bushes to lichen and moss - and even bacteria that has survived over 400,000 years.
More information about the organisms, the project, and her travels is available at Sussman's blog and The Long Now Foundation blog .

Thanks for sharing this information. Very interesting.
So what exactly is that second photo?
Hard to believe these things have been around so long. Amazing.
The second photo is of a plant that only grows in the Namib Desert of Namibia and Angola in Africa. It absorbs water through its leaves. And is considered a living fossil. :0)
cool...I love learning new things.......
