I finished taking rock photos, hooray! (..it's over with!)
I ended up saving 195 photos. I want to take some good pictures of my fluorescent rocks at some point, but I need to figure out how first. I'm glad now I took the pictures on a huge sheet of paper, because some of my rocks left a lot of dirt or shed a lot of fine crystals (looking at you stibnite)
..Not sure when I'll edit them, or how long it'll take, though. Here's a few of the unedited ones.
Went to a rock sale today. 3 different collections were for sale, gathered across a total of a century 🤩 we found some treasures
This is purple fluorite on clear calcite 💜 from coahuila mexico
Pyrite 😎 from spain
Barite crystals 🤎 from Barton co. Georgia
Wulfanite 🥲 from Chihuahua Mexico
Pale amethyst I suspect from thunder bay, this one had no location on the tag.
These two look like sisters. The top is Galena on blue fluorite from New Mexico and the other is blue fluorite with hematite cubes, from unknown location 🫂
‘A Song to the Lake’, Aug. 2023, photo Erik Gigengack.
Yesterday I gave the model a beautiful baryta print of this photo as a gift. She was very happy with it.
See more baryta prints of my work at Catawiki and Kunstveiling.nl, search for Gigengack. (I am personnaly not the seller on these websites, but I am happy when my work reaches interested parties.)
