A small but very nice slice of Viñales with fusion crust on the edge. To see its internal structure is, in my opinion, very interesting.

Twink Monrad 3/18/2021 10:52:15 AM	As I frequently mention I truly admire good photography, the few times i have tried photographing meteorites have been very challenging!
Bernd Pauli 3/18/2021 5:33:33 AM	I like photo #4, too! It's like a night sky with stars and clusters!
Steve Brittenham 3/18/2021 2:42:11 AM	Really nice slice! And the way you showed the reflected metal in Photo 4 is great.
