WOW, what beauties! I just made some cabs that 150fronfundy sent me form Nova Scotia, and I am amazed seeing these how totally diverse the pieces are! There are such beautiful rocks up there. You have a nice set of stones there! I love the clear ones nad the one with the fine banding! Amber

Thanks everyone for the kind comments, much appreciated. That batch was grinding in rough grit for 5 weeks and turned out pretty good. The next batch is on its 6th week now and may go a couple more (must stay patient!). colliel82, I don't really know what it is other than that it is agate with green inclusions/dendrites and I like it a lot as well.The next 2 pics after are of the same stone backlit. It will be made into a pendant.

Great job on the stones. Great pictures too.
Like everyone else, I think #5 is extraordinary. But that reflection in pic #20… Is it the umbrella over a picnic table in the yard?
Just thought I’d ask.
Great rocks.

Really nice, all. Picture #20 looks like a reflection of a hovering UFO.

The reflection does look like a ufo, but its really a distorted view of the balcony above mine. the rocks are in a flat bottomed white bowl sitting on the railing.
