zoup Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hi group. Here are a few photos of fossils that I found over this last holiday. I found these in an old stone quarry in the Alleghney national forest up by Mareinville Pa. There are different genus of Lepidodendron/bark and stems. I left most of the fossils at our camp,next time we go up I will take photos and post. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Those are nice; better color contrast than what we find at our camp near Smethport. Did you coat them with Krylon or something?

Hi Auspex do you think I should take the photos before I treat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Hi Auspex do you think I should take the photos before I treat them. Maybe just adjust the lighting for the pictures, to eliminate the reflections.

I'm not sure the forth is lepidodendron, it seems to be kind of fern stem. Could you post a bigger size photo?
