Here are the first photo's of my collection of minerals. At the moment I am making photo's of all my specimen and I'm also adding them to my recently finished MS Access database. This will take a while, so I will probably only add a few specimen per post.

There is no real theme to it, but I try to collect specimen with very clear crystal structures.

Enjoy!
