gristlejaw Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 So I snapped my first few photos of some mesofossils this past week. I did this using a fairly inexpensive digital camera (Canon Powershot A1000 IS) aimed through one the eyepieces. I'm amazed on how well the came out. The first 2 photos are from Arcadia Formation matrix (approx. 25 ft. BLS) from Port Charlotte, FL near the Myakka River. The first photo contains a well-worn shark's tooth fraction and these silica-replaced (recrystallized) fossils i haven't yet identified (possibly coral?). The second photo appears to be some type of Bryozoan. The third photo: i can't remember the location of the matrix (somewhere in Florida) and i have not seen anything like it before. It has a small cluster of pyrite on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
