The pattern in the first one is stunning! I'd love to know exactly what that is. Second stone is purty, too!

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

Thought i posted names, i guess being up past bedtime doesnt help lol. I bought the lightbox off amazon, cheapest one out and probably the smallest. Using only cell phone camera so my big one is probably a lot better.

1st material is thunderegg outskirts 2nd is chalcocite with azurite and malachite.
