For those interested, I have a collection of photographs showing close-up views of various colorful meteorites. They can be viewed online and if you choose to pay postage, you can get all 15 high-resolution pictures printed on photo-quality paper for free when you sign-up with the photo-hosting company. No strings attached if you just want to view the pictures.

Just email me off-list and I will send you instructions on how to view the images.

Cheers,

Martin
