Attempt to bring a fossil back to life.

I did this pic for friends that wanted to get an idea of what the fossils I collect look liked when alive. The hardest to explain are phyllocarids and cephalopods. This is a self collected specimen that I posted recently under - Upper Devonian of NY. Its not perfect but it did the job. Now explaining to them how they can be found in NY and that an ocean was here for many millions of years. :)

Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

Definitely better than my Photoshop skills! :P

 

Great job! :D

Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such.

Love what you did to bring it to life!!! I also had difficulty with explaining cephalopod s to children. Here is part of a display I made. It was actually quite easy!!
