Dover Fault at Sunset Limited Edition Drone Photography Prints
Glowing in the golden hour light, Dover Fault stands as one of Newfoundland’s most powerful geological landmarks. Over 400 million years ago, this fault line marked the collision of ancient continents — Gondwana and Laurentia — shaping not only Newfoundland but the very story of Earth itself. This massive fault line marks the ancient boundary between two continents — Laurentia to the west, the heart of North America, and Avalonia/Gondwana to the east, once part of Africa and Europe. These two landmasses collided in an event called the Taconic Orogeny, which helped form the Appalachian Mountains. Today, the warm sunset light reveals the timeless scars of that collision, connecting us to a history far older than human memory. Standing here, you witness more than a view — you witness the Earth’s story written in stone.
