Thanks Tobi, I agree, but some specimens I just don't get right, no matter how much I try.

And then try to find a good light source, maybe indirect sunlight from above. And then take your camera and try to get the whole specimen focused. Finally, you can digitally revise the photos if they are too bright or too dark or if the contrast is too high or too low ... the result should be a picture that does this beautiful mineral specimen justice :)
Good luck from one who often fought against the alliance of minerals and cameras and who often lost the fight, but never gave up ;-)
Cheers!
Tobi
