2014 was an awesome year of fossil-collecting, and as always, the Singapore Fossil Collectors had a meet-up to usher in the new year.

Allow me to present some of the pictures taken.

Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!

The good thing about riker boxes is that they are so handy. You can safely examine fossils with them.

Waiting for the last of the collectors. For some reason, pizza is our food of choice during 95% of our meet-ups.

A wonderful collection, attractively displayed, it looks like everyone is enjoying the meeting and trade session.

I especially like the marine predator, Riker display shown in the 2nd photo - artistically arranged with divers elements centering on a common theme. It's very, very nice.
