saysac Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Found this beautiful example of a Megalopteris last weekend. Lots of detail and very happy when I cracked open the rock! Sherry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 That's a beauty, Sherry! I took the liberty of brightening and cropping it a bit for you - hope you don't mind. The detail on this is stunning. Great find!
