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.
Thanks for tips. Appreciate it.

Champion. The one sided pattern was just due to the random way the glass ran out of the tank. They were just melting glass, letting it run out of a hole in the furnace and cutting the steam into little sections and letting them fall on the rollers, which made them round. No manipulation of the pattern on most swirls.
Thanks. So interesting to know these things.

The first one is a swirl--a WVS or "West Virginia Swirl"--probably an "Alley Agate".
The second one appears to be a slag with most of the white buried--probably an Akro Agate.
The third is imho a Jabo "Classic" otherwise known as one made by the factory for general distribution.
I always appreciate every opinion and hope to see some more
No one "bugs"🪳 me here Meep.
Marble--On!!!

It could be a messed up Akro cork. Does it have a cork?
