Photoshop contest - amber treasure

HOME » photoshop contests » amber treasure

Contest Goal:

Fossilized amber often reveals the most interesting treasure, and even recently has presented never before seen insects, long extinct but perfectly preserved. Come up with your own fossilized *amber inclusion*. It doesn't have to be an insect, but it does have to appear fossilized within amber. Wouldn't scientists be surprised to find a set of keys inside?
