Rocks and Crystals

I created this colorful series of rocks and crystals for my final project in the Still Life 1 class I took last semester at the Academy of Art. I shot each of these with a 100x macro lens and some I had to use an extension tube. The first two and last one are shot in studio, the rest are natural light. All these gems are part of my collection. I plan on continuing this project as my collection continues to grow
