Hi Craig have some lovely work there hope the drop test was deliberate I did it on a piece of opal once onto concrete (Accident ) did not end well.

Those are stunning!  Fabulous pictures.  Looks like I could pick them up right off the screen.  Can't pick a favorite, they are all yummy.   :drool:

They are all great, and I'm really liking the Laguna Agate.  Great composition!

All great stones Craig.  Haven't heard of that seam agate before but fantastic material and workmanship as always.

Never seen flickr before and have no pics on my screen. Are these linked pics you have to click to go to the site or do people on a normal unblocked network see them without clicking them?

You should be able to see them directly in the post.  No clicking involved.

Thanks, everyone!

Bluetangclan: Yes, they should be visible to you. And I don't know how to fix it if just one person can't see them. You are always welcome to look at my Flickr page to see them all.

irockhound: Kerrochen seems to be the name of this Moroccan seam agate. Originally, I only saw it sold as Moroccan Seam Agate, but it appears there is more being sold now by location.

hummingbirdstones, lithicbeads: My pictures have gotten better since I switched to a natural sunlight light bulb as opposed to soft white. I believe that was in a post on taking pictures by Steve.  Also switching to the gray background seems to have helped the color.

Wow! The colors and patterns are very impressive. Such vibrant colors! Will you set them yourself? I’d love to see what they turn into.

Guessing its my networks filter. I cant even go to flicker without a red screen saying that page is off-limits and my activity has been logged. I have noticed some peoples hosts I can see, and some I cant. Yours just is one I cant.
