These are really beautiful, Bob. All the wonderful colors and textures they display certainly do make them perfect subjects for closeups. My dad was fascinated with rocks and minerals all his life.


After seeing these, I can certainly understand the fascination! I'll post more of the rocks at a later date that have fossil inclusions and more! Thanks for stopping by and for your comments!

Aren't they beautiful..good ones!


While searching for these, I ran across many interesting rocks that were sourced along the shores of Lake Michigan...a surprise to me!

As always, I appreciate and enjoy your visits!

My young great-grandson (now 7) has been fascinated with rocks and minerals for some time now. A while back I searched and found a source for "rocks for tumbling". I selected some for him to process on his tumbler and had them delivered to me. I figured I could examine them and be able to better discuss his hobby with him. I WAS AMAZED! Some of these stones are absolutely beautiful even before the tumbling! They also turned out to make excellent subjects for close-up photography. I have attached three subjects that I particularly liked! All these are pieces of larger rocks that have been fractured intentionally into usable sizes. They have had no other processing done to them.

Yes, especially on download, Bob, and even better to see the textures on double download!
