Looks like a castle from a German fairy tale - or the castle from Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang????

Is it the place that was in the "first ever photograph"?

xoxoxoBruce 09-15-2010 10:24 PM
No, that was a cityscape, no castle.

What is this? It's on a 3"x5" card:

One of those insects that looks like a leaf with nitrogen deficiency.

Funky toenail.

A scale from a tiny green dragon?

Holly leaf?

something turtle related. One of those segments of the shell. Like a soccer ball segment.

It does have a toothular® appearance.

Undertoad 10-16-2010 04:14 PM
glatt correct!

The turtle's shell consists of these what they call "scutes", which shed away one piece at a time.

sweet!

So is it OK that it's shedding, or is that some kind of disease or something?

Undertoad 10-16-2010 09:32 PM
Totally normal, it's like a snake shedding, except that the turtle doesn't need to shed everything at once. Once the scutes come loose, it means the shell underneath is hardened and ready to protect. This one was partly green only because algae grew on it.

I just thought it was kinda cool and wondered where it was, or might be if it's even a real scene.
The original is very low rez and this is blown up considerably, but I think it might be from a famous painting.
Any ideas?
