My wife and I don't have same taste for pics and photos, so it is rather difficult to agree on what we are going to hang on our walls. But we agreed on this. It is something I saw that photograph, whose name I forgot, is doing and was fascinated with his photographic skills and rocks that he photographed. Since then I had that idea. To take photos of my rocks and frame them and hanged them on the wall. My photographic skills and variety of rocks are not even close to that guy’s whose name I forgot, but it is not so important. It’s fun that counts. Tomorrow I am going to have 6 of them printed. Thanks for looking. Zoran

Those are beautiful and it's great that you can both look at stuff that interests you - I know the artist that you're referring to and I can,t remember his name either - yours I DO remember however! How big are those gonna be?

Zoran, the first one and the fourth one ate Mother's Nature masterpieces! Of course, you are the co-author by selecting the scenes.

Now that is an excellent idea! Great shots, Zotika!
How big are the final pieces going to be?

Zotika, That is a really cool idea. I usually make backgrounds for my powerpoint presentations with some of my really cool pictures. I never thought of making it into art. By the way this one is my favorite I stole it from you

Thank you all, very much. KD, that's right - Bill Atkinson. He made that great pics of great stones. My pictures are 2055 pixels (17.4 cm - almost 7 inch) with 300 dpi. I am willing to send to any board member those high resolution pics - for personal use. Pics are 2-3 mb each. If anybody wants them, that is.

They are magical. Truly captures the Spirit of the Rock. Very nice. I've wanted to get into doing some photography like that but we are saving for our nice SLR digital. Tammy

Those cme out great Zotika. Bill Atkinson used to be a big honcho at Apple Computer so he has the financial backing to buy expensive cameras and lighting, plus travel the world to get his hands on some nice material. But your shots are every bit as good as his. Nice job.

Zoran, please send me the first and especially the fourth one. In this one, I see a crazy knight riding, with the wind blowing his hair. I can almost here the horse's run when i look at it!
