Rock and minerals macro photography: white quartz with lazulite
If you are looking for large pieces of quartz then Graves Mountain is a good place to source some. That is where I have found many of my specimens. @bitfiend pointed out that amethyst was spotted on one of my rocks ive posted. Very small amounts but still very cool to know im finding it.

I like know it wraps the stone, and its really sturdy unlike most lazulite finds.

Some black specs, not sure what caused them but seem to be mineral related.

Glad I could help! Thanks for the shout out! I was new to markdown when I joined steemit so it's been a bit of a learning process. I wouldn't call it my style of formatting as it's just adding a clickable link to your picture. I actually got some knowledge from @juliank's photo template, as well as Making Steemit Posts in different beautiful ways | Beautify Your Steemit Posts by @itwithsm. Just taking bits here and there to form my own layouts and posting templates!
Either way I was happy to help and like the changes! Keep posting your finds! I find a lot of amethyst around here but a lot of it are super small pieces.
Wow, how did you made that work? I mean that image clicking thing for a bigger picture? I need that :D
And awesome pictures bro. I love the details. But you posted many nice stuff in the last days (and weeks/months too, but I am talking about the rocks ;D).
Ah just figured it out yesterday. While posting on #rockhound I saw someone by the username @bitfiend displaying images with clickable bodies. I asked how he did it:

I find easy to drop the image in the body and then take one of his finished embeds and change out the .jpg path in three places.
Thanks man, glad you like the rocks and forest pics... Im thinking about selling some of the rocks on Blockmarket. That is Syscoins marketplace. I dont want to mess with OpenBazaar if i have to accept BTC. Ill post links when I do, a great way to advertise them.
Ive been a fan of Syscoin for years now, so Id love to be on their marketplace.
Okay, thx man, I will check it out.
Well, I have to try this. Hopefully not too difficult lol.
Np. Yes, they are amazing. Do that, sounds like a good idea. What is Syscon? I think I have heard about that coin before. Maybe even because of you haha. Not sure, sry.
Nah its not, if you cant do what he said then just take his example and remove his URL info and replace with yours.
Syscoin is a coin with an online marketplace called Blockmarket, its wrapped in their Syscoin wallet. They stand out to me because OpenBazaar has problems due to bitcoins block congestion. So Syscoin has taken lessons and built a better marketplace.. IMO Yeah man they have been around for a few years, they have masternodes too but i cannot afford one.

Sounds good haha
Alright, thx for the explaining. Sounds good too. Idk nothing about OpenBazaar; never heard about it. But I understand, I believe.
So Syscoin has his own marketplace and this one is better than this OpenBazaar. Maybe I will invest in it. Have to think about that first. :D
