Did you prep it with a dremmel?

I did not prepare it myself, but I think so…

Fossil coral from the Devonian seas of Indiana! This was a gift from my friend @sarah-sheffield. Corals make their skeletons of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) but this fossil is preserved as silica (SiO2). Replacement is a form of fossil preservation that occurs when the original skeletal chemical composition is replaced with a new chemical compound. In this case CaCO3 to SiO2! #fossil

6 days, 18 hours agoNathan Newell posted an image in the group Paleo Pics from the myFOSSIL appI don’t like to Photoshop my fossil pics (beyond maybe adjusting the exposure) because I don’t want to unrealistically distort the images; I want the fossils to speak for themselves. But I thought the pinhole filter in Photoshop Express did some really interesting things with the textures in this photo, so I guess there are exceptions to the rule. 😁 #fossil

Definitely! Looks awesome! Sometimes playing around with exposure, brightness, and a few other misc. tools really make specific features pop that you didn’t see before. I’ve also dabbled with under water photography- super helpful for seeing plate boundaries in echinoderms but bubbles are your enemy!!!
-
@jbauer Thanks! So with your underwater photography, do you put the camera in the water too? This sounds like something I might try. 😁
-
Haha! No, just the specimen is submerged. Usually just in a small tin or Tupperware.
-
@jbauer Cool! I’ll have to give it a try. Thanks!

Another unique tooth from Topsail, NC! #fossil
-
What do you think this tooth is from? Am I right to guess it is from marine deposits?
-
Looks like a broken shark tooth. Maybe?
-
@jeanette-pirlo I think you are right, but what kind of broken shark tooth? I have been having a hard time comparing it to pictures!
-
I think it may be a 7-Gill shark tooth fragment

I picked up this fossil for the two prominent Mucrospirifer(?) shells, but if you look closer, you’ll see all sorts of little shelled critters. Shown is about 4-5cm, top to bottom. #fossil
