[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Exposed vein of opal in iron-rich rock from Queensland, Australia. To give you a sense of scale, if you and your friend stacked your fists one on top of the other, it would be about three or four fists high. This is in the Museum of Natural History in London.

Hi Thomas,

I like this nice macro that is very very clear with nice colored reflection in it. Nicely done.
Luc

This is strange and beautiful at the same time. It almost looks like an aquarium or some portal to deep sea. Very nice.

Hi Tom,
Again an interesting capture adding to my knowledge! Good colours and sharpness, and I'm quite amazed by the size of the stone... Do you have any idea what the value might be?
Regards,
