Hi List, I love a good meteorwrong, and I recently acquired a fantastic specimen of Shirokovsky. It is a 39g full slice with 3 translucent crystals. I tried to capture the translucent crystals in photos, but it proved difficult. I don't have a lightbox (yet), so I had to hold the specimen up to a bright lamp with one hand and hold the camera with the other. The result was shaky/blurry photos.
But I did take a couple of decent shots of the slice here - http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj24/Meteoritethrower/shiro-1.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj24/Meteoritethrower/shiro-2.jpg Best regards, MikeG ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Gilmer - Galactic Stone & Ironworks Meteorites Website - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/galacticstone News Feed - http://www.galactic-stone.com/rss/126516 Twitter - http://twitter.com/galacticstone Meteorite Top List - http://meteorite.gotop100.com EOM - http://www.encyclopedia-of-meteorites.com/collection.aspx?id=1564 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
