#ManicureMonday

So, while I'm not really into twitter OR Seventeen Magazine (or nail polish... let's be honest), I do love all the nerdy photos with #ManicureMonday tags.

So, I thought I'd join the tradition, and show off some fun shots of my dirty nails next to cool fossils (and other geology things)

A Late Triassic (Norian) Sphinctozoan sponge (a hypercalcifyer that lived in a reef)
An awesome Late Triassic (Norian) tabular coral with (probable) annual growth bands

The end-Triassic Extinction horizon from the Newark Basin!

CAMP Basalts, 201.520 million years old!

Iron-rich regolith pisoids from Australia! 

Crenulated stromatolites from the Duck Creek Dolomite (~1.8 billion years old), Western Australia
