Knocked out a couple more yesterday between rain showers. One from black and another from red obsidian. Tried something new for the pic submerging them in a cake tin filled with water. Seems to eliminate a lot of the glassy glare I normally got in past sunlight pics. Larger of the two (red) is right at 6" by an actual ruler measurement. Second is 4 1/8 and a quarter for scale.

Sold one mounted in a shadow box recently for a local rifle range fundraiser. Don't know what it actually generated, but an acquaintance said he backed out of the bidding when it hit $200. Takes a bit more time, but I've also been knocking out a few matched pairs lately. The first is a piece of cake, the second takes a lot more effort.

Getting low on rock, so I need to get out and scour the country for a day. Just another reason to get out though.

Have a good one,
