tracer Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 i really like the picture itself. the lighting and all is very nice. and i really like the variation in colors in the fossils found. can you say "chiaroscuro"? i thought you could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitviper Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 Lord Piney, wow, that spot was awesome! My brother got almost as much, and we really only sifted one gravel bar! As for the ammonite... is that the white thing?? I though it was a bit of a shell. Thanks to all "Nothing happens in contradiction to nature, only to what we know of it."

Shamalama Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Great finds!
