Raggedy Man Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) That turned out wonderful. I'm happy I was able to help you acquire some specimens from St.Paul. Did you get a chance to prep that caylex with arms? Best regards, Paul Edit:I should mention that my wife found that(The first trilobite she found) and is the one who offered it to Peat. BTW Peat, she loves the fish! Edited August 23, 2016 by Raggedy Man ...I'm back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW Peat, she loves the fish! I've started on the Eucalyptocrinus. Several hours so far, but hardly feels like I made a dent. Lots of epibiota on it.

RJB Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I don't understand? Why such a color difference? Did you take the shell material off? Very confused. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peat Burns Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 I don't understand? Why such a color difference? Did you take the shell material off? Very confused.RB No, just different lighting. The before pic was a quickie taken on the corner of the stage of the stereoscope (I always forget to take "before" pics). Both pics were taken with my phone, and depending on the background value (black or white) it automatically adjusts the tone of the object...

Raggedy Man Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 That piece is going to look amazing. I can't wait to see it finished. ...I'm back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Side by side for comparison: Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Peat Burns Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Here's the same specimen in oblique incandescent light (same as the "before" photo) from the same camera angle as the "before" photo. The "after" photo I posted above had overhead fluorescent light. Among other things, the value of the background and the spectral characteristics of the light source affect the auto-correction features of the cell phone camera.
