As I mentioned previously I was having some trouble with my camera (pixels dropped, blurring etc).
I bought a new camera on Cyber Monday (Olympus TG-6).
Took me a while to receive it-so unfortunately I had to sell some ball pythons before I got a chance to photograph them.
Ahhh well, I still have my holdbacks...
Shown below is the lens of my TG-5 after 7 years of adventures.
Photo #280
Pastel VPI Axanthic with tumbled/polished Rubellite
Rubellite = Pink Tourmaline in Quartz
Tough material to tumble because it was heavily fractured when I received it (due to the mining process).
Does make a nice photo-if one does not look too closely.![]()
