Can't help but echo the last couple comments. Lakers give a great return on time invested. Look forward to watching!
ETA: that's the kind of rough that keeps tumbling exciting.

Love the material. That second one is a knock-out! Thanks! You probably know but it's a Teepee Canyon Yup, I'm jealous of...I mean familiar with...all the goodies you find.

Looking REALLY good. 1 & 2 are my faves. 2 is the champ. Pretty good when I can see your fluorescent lighting. (Pssst leds are cheap on amazon) Thanks, my friend. Psssst...I'm taking pictures of them at work. I'll tell my boss about the LEDs. Just don't tell him the LEDs are for taking pics of rocks...at work. Really liking those first two. The blue lace is always a crowd pleaser. Great shine!

Those are great pics. I've already considered lighting possibilities. Also, we'll step into the pieces a little closer. Such as...

Nice roll! You got a great shine on those. Owyhee was one of my first (successful) tumbled batches, I still have a soft spot for it.

Send them, I'll take some macro shots and we'll sell the prints as abstract art. I would be honored to have some Randy quality photos of the glass I have collected. Ah, the tumble polished shards from the expensive blown vases would be the ultimate photo project. They were bought at thrift stores but are super fine art vases valuable in their day. Each vase broken and tumbled is kept in a separate container. I'll send you a sample polished shard of each of many. Since the vases were made all over the world it would be an international photo collective. It would make a fine reference album for glass blower's styles too. And you can make prints of our backyard stuff ! I'm not sure we would get much respect out of Milano Italy lol ! Just imagining the great glass blowers from Poland, Italy, Sweden, Czech Republic etc barfing when they see mine and Denise's creations. PM address Randy. P.S. The only camera ever used on the glass was iPad Pro so they have not been photographed well. There is a lot of pattern/color structure going on in hand blown/fused glass on a macro level. Haven't done any macro shots in a while, Jim, it would be MY honor to photograph some of your creations. It's a trip getting down into the details on some of the rocks we tumble, I imagine the glass is a different world, due to the depth and layers in some of those pieces. And the colors! I'm excited.

My word, I'm late to the party. That's a whole explosion of color; you guys have been very busy. Lots of photographic opportunities with all that fodder. I could get lost in all the composition possibilities. More than ever I wish I had a fine macro set up with nice lighting. The close ups can flat tear up some pixels. The glass gets some serious small details. Colors galore. I'll have to send you some good photo subjects to nail. Send them, I'll take some macro shots and we'll sell the prints as abstract art.

Looks like you did pretty well for yourself again this time. Man, if it wasn't so far away from home, that would be a real treat to see and pick through. It's hard to imagine, especially for us Easterners, the sheer volume and variety of some of these collections.

Very nice stone and wrap. I can wait months for a stone to tumble out to my liking...5 minutes fighting that wire and I'm ready to chuck it all out the window. Patience is selective, I guess. I'm still jealous of everyone that has the skill to manipulate those wires. Thanks for sharing!
