Hi Heimo. I am reasonably happy with my photography, but there is lots of room for improvement. You are not doing too bad for a beginner! :-)

Heimo,
Your red tint wulfenites (HH 832B.JPG) from Tsumeb are pretty cool, I haven’t seen too many examples of those. I also agree with Michael about the duftite and cuprite (HH 352.JPG, page 1) specimen, that is a pretty neat one too.
As dioptase is one of my favorite minerals, I really think the Calcite/Dioptase (HH 338, page 1) is a pretty sweet specimen.

Since my last login I have been enjoying looking through more of your Tsumeb Mine, Namibia, specimens. The specimens I have especially enjoyed are the azurites (HH 640B.JPG, pg. 1 and HH 504.JPG, pg. 1) and the smithsonites (HH 137.JPG, pg. 2 and HH 330.JPG, pg. 2).
It seems we also have the same opinion on that calcite and dioptase on dolomite specimen (HH 831A.JPG) it so far has been my favorite specimen to look at in your collection! That is a really great example.
