Thanks everyone. Stephan, I think it was James or Banjo that made me switch to Tin Oxide and I haven't looked back.

Very nice work, Ed, as always. I think I recognize some of those stones from a rockhounding trip around a lake that you shared with us a while back. The brown and white and brown and blue stones -- you found 'em and cabbed 'em speedy quick. Nice to see those pretty rocks again. The Biggs jasper is gorgeous. What's that peanut wood-looking stone?

Wow Matt, that's very observant picking out those stones I collected. They turned out really cool. Not sure which ones you mean as to the peanut wood stones.

The dark brown with white spots at 2 o'clock in the first pic and the focus of the pic right before the backlit montana moss. Now that I look a little closer, is that a type of poppy?

You got it Matt. I got it from a shop that was going out of business. It's pretty cool stuff.

Wow, that's a real eye-popping batch!! Love the moss agates and the close-ups of them. I'm guessing those pink ones are rhodonite?... could pass for flint ridge flint too?... fantastic no matter what they are. You really Ed'd that batch

The moss agate in the 8th photo is my favorite. Once and a while I find one like that and they make for a long long look with a magnifying glass.
