FOSSIL DAY
Today was spent traipsing around the show with Geoff buying meteorites. I love spending someone else's money:) While he was otherwise occupied I dashed off to shoot photos. Due to the locations we were in, most of the photos from today are fossil related. I love the gem show.

Tucson Gem Show
THE BEGINNING
And so it has begun. The Tucson gem and mineral shows. Rocks, minerals, meteorites, fossils, friends, out-of-town guests, colleagues, shopping, mayhem. I’m so happy, I could just spit.
This past weekend was the official opening weekend. Woo boy what a time. Lots of photos already and since I want to get going so I can hit the show as much as possible, I am just going to post some of the early images and not much text. I was thinking of an image a day kind of thing, but realized that would be somewhat ambitious.

SKY ART
THE GEM SHOW IS IN 4 DAYS!!!!!! Whew. Now that I got that out…
We have a new line of art. It revolves around what I have been doing lately. That is to say, not so much in the way of nature photography, ‘cuz not much in the way of getting out into nature; but meteorite photography, ‘cuz much in the way of working around space rocks. So the new line is comprised of macro photos of etched iron meteorites, showing the Widmanstatten pattern. This accumulation of hash-marks is unique among iron meteorites. They reflect the growth of the nickel and iron crystals. The thicker the crystals the longer they took to cool. I though they would make great obscure art work.
They are available in notecards and 4 x 6, 5 x 7, 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20 and 20 x 30 prints.
Thanks for stopping by.
