FIGURE 12. Two
specimens of Chancelloria and one of the sponge Vauxia from the
Burgess Shale, British Columbia (ROM 49605). Immersed in water. A.
Without crossed nicols; green channel. B. With
crossed nicols; green channel. C. Image obtained by subtracting the pixel
values of B from those of A, using the Adobe Photoshop “Subtract” blending
mode (settings: Opacity = 100, Offset = 100, Scale = 1) and subsequently
adjusting the levels in the combined channel. D. Image obtained as in C,
except that values of A are subtracted from those of B (this has the same effect
as inverting the values of C). (Click on the picture to toggle between
