So I'm sure there's a topic already posted covering how to best take pics for newbies - but I can't seem to find it! So, if anyone has links to said topics, I'd much appreciate them!

I don’t know why it took me this long to think about using my daughters light board to take my pictures. It even has a millimeter scale.

Here is a collection of photos of fossils from the Permian Schnebly Hill Formation in Arizona. I believe that this is from the Promontory Butte Uranium Mine which is in the Schnebly Hill Formation just above the Naco Formation. Photo is from geological educator Stan Celestian.

The last time I got out on the river was back in mid-January. Since then, I have watched the USGS gauges while the weather stayed mostly dry. The river height and flow was dropping steadily and just when I was ready to go hunting again, the entire house got sick with the flu - this was right before the coronavirus started grabbing all the headlines. It was very frustrating to sit inside the house while the weather was so beautiful and the river getting so low. Yesterday was the first day where the wife and I both felt close enough to 100% to brave the trip and go hunt some fossils. I loaded up

I wanted to show the forum members my new Photocube, courtesy of Aerogrower. Ray sent me one of his self made photocubes, and I absolutely love it! I am very impressed with the quality and professional finish on this cube. Now when I post pics of fossils I will always have this 1 inch cube on hand for size comparison. Ray, Thank-you so much for your generosity! Here are some pics, 1st a Herkimer Diamond and the rest some trilos

Hi Folks, Recently I read about "digested teeth". This is in regards to teeth from prey animals that have been consumed by a predator and then excreted later. One example would be whale teeth eaten by a megalodon. Does anyone have any photos of digested teeth, or any knowledge to share on how to identify a suspected specimen of this type? Thanks in advance! MikeG

I found a simple technique for getting better up close photos from an iPhone 6. I hold, with one hand, my 10x Hastings Triplex hand lens centered over the iPhone lens and the phone. See the difference (look at "ton" in Washington in these photos of a 1 $ US bill. Now, maybe we can see the pebbly texture of eggs or the grain in petrified wood. Photo without handlens:

Otter creek field report 02-13-16: The day turned out to be a wonderful day to hunt South Carolina fossils. I met with one other at 1pm. We gathered our gear and headed out to find the elusive shark teeth and various other fossilized materials. We arrived at a deep cut creek site and began to survey. The first item that was very noticeable was very little evidence of other fossil hunters. What we found was blue marl, tan and brown marl, blue limestone, phosphate, and large stones (gravel of sort). Sanding-in was obvious in 90% of the creek. There were no teeth protruding from the dark gray san

Spent a few hours tonight mucking around trying to get some nice macro shots of some insects in Baltic amber. Here are the results. Field of view is approximately 7mm, but some of these have been cropped considerably.

Ladies and gentlemen- The new year is coming upon us. I bet you need a fossil themed calendar to hang in your office/lab/bathroom etc. I have just the thing. For the past ten year almost, I have put together a fossil prep calendar. This is a fund raising project for SVP's Preparation Grant. Money raised from the sales of this calendar go towards improving fossil preparation by granting cash to a museum or person who proposes a project. This year the winner was a young lady from Egypt who will be coming to the states to learn some prep techniques that she can bring back to her museum

Hoping to borrow some Mifflin trilobite images for My 10 year old Son's display.
Mignoffo posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
My ten year old son has a wonderful opportunity to display his local fossil collection at the Burpee Museum in Rockford, Ililnois for their national fossil day. As he is only ten, many of his fossils are maybe a tad less than museum quality. So, for part of his display he will have some of his mifflin ordovician fossils. He has a couple hash plates with assorted trilobite fragments which are cool as heck, but I think it would be nice to display some photos of complete, or almost complete specimens to go along with his fragments. The species whose images I am requesting are: -

Finally got my camera from AM Scope while it works great the magnification is way too much. So I bought a digital microscope with less magnification. I had posted earlier that I had found microscopic sphericals with what I believe to be shocked quartz. Which could indicate an ancient impact I got a photo of a few of these. I also have a photo of a tooth that I can not ID and a pic of some microscopic SD gold. I will add more pics soon.
