This is really beautiful. It can be so hard to take a photograph that really shows just how beautiful these are. It's so hard to capture not only the colors, but the luster and metallic-ness. Very nice work!

The rocks tell the stories of the old times.
They are like going to the library.
Such tales they tell.
I am an amateur rock lover too.
