The best thing about the app I use for background removal is that once I save the pictures it changes the data size dramatically by saving in a different format. Making it easier to load the photos for the viewer. I then delete the original off my phone and keep the end results. I don't use any color tweaking or doctoring of the original picture. They are always as they were taken.

Hey buddy what i do for my pictures is i use a headlamp for my lighting and have a galaxy s23ultra for my camera. I use the default 12mp camera setting and zoom to at least 2x or 2.5x. It comes down to color of your background. For lighter colored marbles, well most marbles I use a grey like background when taking pics. Whenever I am photographing a dark colored marble like a purple slag I use a slightly darker color for the background to help show the marble details better. You want to make sure you tap on the object your photographing to correct the focus then snap. After I've taken all my pictures.I use the app called photo room AI can share 50 pictures at once. It removes the background for me and centers the marble.

Ravenswood? Im pretty happy with my self with these pictures.

Its transparent green on the left and transparent blue on the right. If you look at that 1st picture it really shows it the best. I will try to get a picture of it back lit

I had also felt the same about the seams and also thought about vitro based on the seams, however its got a major marble king look to it with the colors. Its interesting tstl

I was thinking DAS from the what looks like frit on it.

Its Boulder Sized @ 0.973" its a Looker!

Base is a dark transparent green and blue with white stripes. Size is 0.86"

9/16"

Im going to try to get the money together to buy one if the books. I hope I can before they sell out

19/32"

21/32"

With all the bubble it nake sme think of Peltier but just has a vitro look to it. Size is ⅝"

So i think this could be a christensen swirl marble. In comparison to the seams on the one in the reference photograph almost identical pattern

Could this potentially be a kokomo?

Based off the last pics I think Alley

Looks like a little duck sitting there

Im right with you when I look at it. Would have to hear from another in the group

I think so! I posted one just like it in aam and cheese declared mine a heaton.

I will find it for you.

Its was exactly the same for me. It can definitely cause some headaches along the way.

Size on this guy is 19/32"

Thank you guys I thought it was pretty unique myself.

Yes mam I would call those Phantom Conquerors. Your picking up pretty good keep it up

Yes i believe they are. With the conqueror marbles you will notice they are usually a veneered type with a transparent base. Veneered meaning that the colored glass is veneered onto a clear marble creating its design. They are always a patch style marble. There are Phantom Conquerors and they will have a wispy white rather than a solid white base.
