Because the pictures are much larger they can often show "flaws" that are not visible to your eye. But that is why we use magnification to inspect as we work.

The green crystals are very interesting but I don't have a clue.

Nice batch. Sometimes we have to remember the photographs enlarge the stones, (most of the time), exposing flaws that you would not notice otherwise.

Doing great for limited equipment. You can polish with a dremel if you get the right bits.
