I know a few Geology geeks who would love this one! Nice find.
I think a change in direction of your light source (more to the side) would have helped to bring out the natural curves and lines of this piece though.
really interesting, thanks for sharing.
Then how'd you get it?
Ummm, how'd I get WHAT?
