So I think I should share "Media" right away so folks know it's really moi - how about a rock? This "rock" is one of my more "famous" rock photos. I took it in a glass display case at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show years ago in 2007 with a point and shoot camera. The "rock" is an amazing geode from the Bisbee mines and owner called it "Velvet Beauty". Back then it was valued at $25,000. I have thousands of photos on my flickr account that is now about 20 years old. Yikes! #Cobalt #Rock #Azurite #Geode

Geode from Bisbee Arizona opened up a little to show off the azurite druzy, fine medium to light blue crystals covering the interior of this large azurite and malachite specimen. It is mostly cobalt blue with swirls of shite and green bits from the malachite.

@cobalt123 I visited a friend who owned a house in Bisbee many years ago. Don't know what it is like now, but it was charmingly weird back then.
