Thank you, Volkmar, I'm glad you like it! I have been searching for long to find a good one with free-standing crystals that is a bit larger and has that vivid colour.

Regards
Tobi

Thanks Michael!
Right, I just realized for the first time that your avatar is an Alnif quartz. I can't remember seeing it in your collection gallery, how large is the specimen? It looks great, I would like to see a larger photo. Or maybe there is one in your gallery and I don't remember?

Regards
Tobi

Tobi, The piece is 7.7 cm tall. A larger picture appears in my gallery somewhere around page 31 I think.

Thanks Dany, indeed a nice and lovely specimen. I think the photo is rather poor and parts of it fuzzy, it wasn't easy to take a photo of the crystals. But I'm glad to hear that the photo is at least ok for the forum community :-)

A safe sunday for you too, best regards
Tobi

Very sorry, Tobi. With a long delay I've just seen you got one million views last April. I'm really happy with such achievement. Congratulations! You much deserve it.

Hi Carles, I noticed you were absent for a while, I hope you are doing well!
Thank you for your kind words, I'm really proud to have earned that much attention with humble photos of a humble collection. You know your evaluation of my minerals always was helpful and constructive for me, so I hope you like my latest additions (you see, quartz and fluorite have become the main focus).

I hope you will again be part of the community and I hope to see some news from your collection!

Stay safe, thanks again & best regards
Tobi
