Îles du Salut, off the coast of French Guiana, were used by the French when they sent convicts to South America. Those who know the book or film, Papillon, will know of them. The islands are quite infamous. Deportation was stopped around 50 years ago, and nature is now reclaiming. Who knows how much longer the walls can stand up to the power of a growing jungle…

Iguanas
Iguanas – Île Royale, notorious French prison island, off the coast of French Guiana.

Ãle St Joseph
Île St Joseph – Nature takes back an abandoned block of cells on another notorious prison island.

An eerie shape in the tree. A knot of wood creates a scarey silouhette. Especially so when considered in the context that this was also in the abandoned prison on Île St Joseph.
