Very nice Ryan but unique is unique (forget the 'very') - keep up the good work and examine the scale patterns in detail cf. Wolf-Ernst Reif

The baby sharks are adorable. I remember when I was living near Chicago, the elementary school where I volunteered had a live shark egg on loan from Shedd Aquarium or something and you could kind of see the embryo through the eggshell.
