Core Photos

You must get permission from Schwehr, Babcock Driscoll, or Kent to use these photos if you were not on the cruise.

Liz Johnstone helped me redo the photos using a digital camera after scraping the surface of the core. This does a much better job of exposing core features.

First Core Photo

BPSIO-04 and ODP 893A
For this photo, I have used photoshop to alter the backgroup, cleaned up the labels, and highlight the scale bars on either side. I have not altered any color in the color bars or cores themselves. You can see the original digital scans below.

The color cards from top down are 2.5Y, 5Y, 10YR, and 5R. The card off to the left side is GLEY. For more info on Munsell Colors see here.


Raw Core Photos


Note: The photo company cropped out the ruler that was in the bottom of the picture. Grrr.
