... turd, or, more specifically, coprolite (fossilized dino dung), subjected to some form of lapidary treatment which leaves it with a high polish. A gift from my younger brother.

A. I think you need to change brother
B. I hope you got him something just as fun
C. umm, have to come back on that one
D. I really was hoping you wouldnt stick this one in the pile (hah pile haha groan)
it is too shiny, sticking a light underneath it would have brought out the amber tones that I think are lurking there (Dear Lordy how do you comment on poop)
get rid of the paper, i think having it on a higher plane would have worked with the angle here. As with most fossils, there are solid pieces (shoot me now), so the brown/amber colour would only enhance these lumps.
LOL. The plastic/paper that it is setting on makes it look like a gem stone. It isn't in focus though, which was probably intended, but is distracting. Very funny.
wow. You've really gone outside the box here. :) There doesn't seem to be enough detail in the ummm... the brown stuff to make me think it's in focus. The wrapping seems more in focus because of this... illusion? (not voting)
This is really funny and quite unique, but the quality is lacking. There's very little in focus, and this kind of shot lends itself to a deeper DOF. Great idea, though! Plus, where'd you get that?!
hmm, how can I put this? your title suggests what the image is but rather than a polished t*rd it appears to be an oof brown thingy on some gift wrapping, you going for the brown perchance?
