Went to sell some stuff at a flea market today. Before I left, I emptied a 3 lb'er of chert 'n glass with a little jasper to take with. Split them up small (.10) and large (.25) and barely remembered to take a picture of them. I was in bright sunlight and couldn't see my lcd so the shine doesn't show as well as it should have. First two pics are at the beginning of the day - last two the end of the day(going back tomorrow).     I'm pretty happy with how they came out and sold. Thanks for looking. |

Looking good! The first batch always feels good and leads to many more. Happy tumbling.

Hi ,
photoing,
you might find you get a better picture if you put yourself between the sun and the rocks ,
Why,
Because with digital the brightness afects the photo,
Good batch keep it up and look forward to seeing some more photos soon
