Hi Wolf, your photos are certainly not inadequate, they have definitely improved since you first joined the page, and I appreciate you asking. I think the first thing I would mention is the area around the marble. When you are photographing a marble, you want the marble to be the focus, so any crazy background color or texture will take away from the focus of the photo. In this screenshot below I would remove (crop out) the area outside the red rectangle, especially if it's a screenshot and there is black area above and below your screenshot. All that extra space around the marble makes for a lot of scrolling for just a few photos here. I hope that helps.

I got mine too, earlier this year! Amazing photo reference, highly recommend this book.

Happy Akro Friday ! 1. Red and Yellow on a translucent base 5/8" 2. Limeade 19/32" 3. Yellow on a transparent Orange base 19/32" 4. Orange Spiral 19/32" 5. Green and Yellow on a UV base 21/32"

Changed, thank you akroorka !

No one got my joke? Dang it, I'm a 🤓. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979): this is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything: 42.

42. 😂

What? No such thing. 😅

@The Nickel Guy I've always loved your lego stand idea very cool, and sorting through marbles sounds like an awesome way to spend a Sunday. I'm pretty sure I've shared all these before, some probably multiple times 🙃 but here they are all together for my Sunday Best.

Let's go y'all ! This kind of connection seems like it's the whole purpose of 'The Marble Connection' Let's do it!

I'd be interested if it's open to any members

This is a really cool looking marble, I like when you can see the flow of the glass or the defining lines between the colors, I'm not sure if I am explaining that clearly enough. Is this a Peltier?

So there's at least two out there, this gives me hope! 🤩 . . . . . . Soooo you're saying there's a chance 😀
