Thank you! Thank you!
Thanks! I was brainstorming along the lines of something more elaborate...maybe in 10-15 years creating an art museum exhibit:
-The walls of the gallery would of course have posters of my 'best' photos in their original resolution of 4K (the ones shown are scaled down to 1K-I do see some quality loss/pixelation in my uploads).
-I would have some rock tumblers and graded grits on display: describing the process. (There would also be a rock tumbler actively tumbling)
-There would be a small interactive 3D geology model section regarding common mining techniques for certain minerals/gemstones.
-There would be a large display screen on one wall with a perpetual loop of ball python eggs hatching in time lapse (which I have already started collecting video for).
-In a glass case in the center of the room I would have examples of stones as they move through the tumbling/polishing process.
-I would have some of my best stones accented by mini-spotlights beside rough stones of the same type.
-There would be a simplified plaque with ball python natural origin and role in Africa, history in the pet trade, and common behaviors.
I'm sure I can think of more things. But, you get the idea.![]()
