palaeopix Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) What a wonderful trilobite tribute. The effort to assemble these is really appreciated. :geek: :pic: Thanks Dan It was entirely my pleasure Scott! I really did this because it was so difficult to scroll through all the pages in order to view the specimens! Now I can see everything in five posts. I was astounded by the number of contributions so far! I tried to avoid repeat photos or alternate angles and still came up with 248 photos. Some of those photos had more than one trilobite in them!

Wrangellian Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Wow, Dan, what a lot of work that must have been. With a little more work, though (like brightening up some dim ones, and adding names/locations, etc) these would make nice posters or just pages in a picture book. Quick ID guide or something. Not saying you should, but thought I would throw that out there! Did you keep the larger-sized files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying you should, but thought I would throw that out there! Did you keep the larger-sized files? It wasn't really too much work Eric! Unfortunately I didn't keep the original files. Many of the images are superb and would make a great set of posters, but I didn't want to go to all that trouble. Some of the original images were really tiny and still others were poor in quality so I did what I could. I really didn't want to fiddle too much with other peoples images. The process was fairly simple to accomplish. I just copied the images and imported them into Adobe's Lightroom. I might be interested in doing more in the future but, to really make it worthwhile, better source files are needed!

Wrangellian Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I guess you would need better shots, true... including some of mine. BTW I think you duplicated pic 9 in 2 posts there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's entirely possible Eric! Like I said, I didn't put a lot of time and effort into this, so there's bound to be duplications and ommissions!

trilobiteruss Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Dan that is an awesome summary of this thread. Thanks for letting us seen in a nutshell where this has been. What a collection of bugs this is! :Bananasaur: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan I mean, you didn't duplicate any individual trilos, but one of your compilations (#9) in two different posts. Easy fix...

squalicorax Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Ill add this one to the thread. this is actually my favorite trilobite in my collection. It rarely leaves my desk for showing off. I have only found a molted frag in addition to this almost complete Encrinurus egani. There is one restored eye stalk done with elmers glue that can be removed.

squalicorax Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Here is a FINE FIne Tricopelta breviceps that a friend found in the Cincinattian of Indiana (Late Ordovician) I thought I'd share it with you guys because it is such a fine specimen and it really good shape. No prep but cleaning of the exoskeleton was done. It was found loose in float.
