Colorful!

Color caused by impurities
I like seeing the colors caused by other element's presence.  I love seeing the fractures, lines and shapes!

This is an extreme closeup made using a 105mm macro lens with a 50 mm lens reversed and used as a closeup filter.  I like to try to imagine how this formed.  It must have been very hot at some point!  The white portion on the left was not hot enough to flow into the the orange but hot enough to meld with it.

Melded rock
This is possibly quartz with was encased in the Flint or Chert. It looks like a sperm swimming upstream across some sort of barrier.  I find myself feeling much curiosity about this.  I really wish I knew more about rocks and minerals!
