#1 is a bomber 2 too. all fine Thanks James Number one surprised me. Had not been paying attention to it during the tumbling but it sure photographed well. Number three is better in person. That photo does not show the depth of the plumes. Chuck

I love the ones with the druzy pockets. I suspect that those require a lot of extra attention to keep from bringing course grit into the next stages.

The grit and polish are not the only problem. Small ceramics are also always lodged in every pocket. Those can be a pain to get out with out hurting the crystal pockets. Chuck

I had that one sitting on my desk at work so I just tried snapping a photo of it with my Iphone. Depth and color might actually be better with the darn phone photo and no fancy lighting. Chuck

Chuck There you go. Now it's exposed. Not to underestimate cell phone and alternate lighting. Multi colored moss, sweet.

Nice tumbles, Chuck. Those first three are killer. The second photo of the moss agate shows the depth and complexity. I like the last two in the lineup also.

I like the photos my Iphone takes. Might not be "professional", but I think it does a great job of showing what I'm looking at. And this is a beautiful batch. Thanks for the phone photo of that amazing rock!

A little variety to this batch. Lots of photos. Hope you find one you like. That’s funny. It was harder to find one I didn’t like. The first one is my favorite.
