This fossil ammonite was found
by me in Germany years ago in and
around some of the many quarries.

The indented dark areas are the
chambers of this limestone shell.

This ripple view might make
for a cool clock face.

The knob in the middle sticks
up like a pointer. This closeup
shows more of the crystals.
I got so excited when I found
this puppy!

the crystal caves.
