docpaleo Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I'm opening up my collection right now so I'll post a few. Hindia saphaeroidalis Naturally sectioned silicified speciman 2 in. - 5 cm. across the sponge Birdsong MemberBeech River FormationWenlockianMiddle Silurian 424 to 430 mya Beech River - Decatur, Tennessee Named the Beech River formation for the Beech River, Decatur County,Tennessee. Consist almost exclusively of fine shales. The unit is highly fossiliferous, gray, yellow and bluish, and weathers into a white clay. Some beds of limestone exist. Thickness is 74 to 106 feet and divided into three crinoid zones. The Beech River formation is considered the basal unit of the Brownsport group. It is Silurian in age ( Niagrian) The specimen is naturally sectioned and shows the exquisite silica preservation of this genus. As many are in the Birdsong member, this specimen is encased in a nodule of partially silicified country rock. Exceptionally large for this formation and one of the larger ones I have seen.

I would like to see how you do it. Thank you Ziggie, Ohio, USA I have no links, but I can tell you how to do it: All you need is digital camera, rotation table and a fossil! Decide how many shots you are going to use to create your animation. More shots - more smoothly will be animation (I use 36 shots). Then divide rotation table into equal sectors (in my case each sector = 10 deg.). Rotate your table from sector to sector and each time make a shot. In Photoshop create gif-animation. Upload it to TheFossilForum so we all can see animation you created )))))) 3 http://evgenykotelevsky.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
