Outstanding colors and patterns! You killed it, really like the variety These jumped out at me. It looks similar to what I can find out here, but so much bolder in the red and yellows

Looks like your photo skills and tumbling skills are above par, or maybe it's below par.... They're real good!

Hello, we have a lot of ordinary red jasper near the Olympic mountains, but sometimes you find some that is a little bit extraordinary. Lately I have been finding some brecciated with hematite that is hard to tumble right because of undercutting, but when it works the colors are really nice. Thanks for taking a look.

These were some smaller pieces from larger rocks I broke with a hammer to get to some material good for slabs. I have yet to work on that. I wish I knew what type of agate the unknown one is. It came with a bunch or rocks I bought at a rock club. It was much larger and it took a long time to get it this nice. Thanks.

Hello rockbrain, yeah, I'm not exactly sure what the par is except for the inspirational photos. This was my first real attempt at trying to take good photos to make them professional looking and post them. I was surprised how well the pics looked. Thanks so much for the comments.
