Really nice selection of material and high quality shine. I enjoyed the pictures. Chuck Getting good rock pics is a struggle for me. Tried many things on my inexpensive camera. Most settings change the color too much so I stick to auto. Got a tip from you about using an LED bulb for lighting and have been happy with the results. Thanks for that.

Even going LED leaves a bunch more options. Those bulbs are sold in things like natural, daylight, cool, warm etc. Each has a different color cast to it. I think the ones I have been using were daylight bulbs. Chuck
