That biggs jasper looks kind of like, for want of a better name, some polychrome chert I picked up on Saturday. I'm hoping it takes a polish. Nice cabs. I love that first one, mountains with snow.

Nice.  Photographing them against a contrasting neutral background made the first few jump out as if you had framed them for display. You have turned a rainy day into a productive one.

Nice cabs! The first mountain scene and the last one are my favourite.

Very nice work!  i have some polychrome that i picked up in 2007 and have not played with yet.  Looks like i need to dig it up and use it.
