It was my birthday this week and MrsR got me this stunning and rare Carboniferous Muirhouse / Granton Fossilised Shrimp Bed, Edinburgh, Scotland. Gorgeous example that has some exceptional Crangnopsis specimens preserved upon it. Lower Carboniferous, some 359 to 323 million years ago. I think it worthwhile posting on the forum it a beauty. Thanks for looking.

Harryhausen. A trip to the Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh
Welsh Wizard posted a topic in A Trip to the Museum
We’ve just been to the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art in Edinburgh to see the Ray Harryhausen exhibition. The exhibition contains models and drawings that Ray Harryhausen made for his various movies. It was a great exhibition and well worth a visit. It had all the models from my favourite films like Jason and the Argonauts, Clash of the Titans and the three Sinbad movies. Why this thread on the fossil forum. Well Ray loved dinosaurs and he was lifelong friends with Ray Bradbury who also loved dinosaurs.- 7 replies
