Color is a tricky question. The color gamut of Peter's camera and the gamut of any particular monitor is never an exact match. We could be talking on the phone, discussing this picture and viewing it on our respective monitors, and see substantially different things. Throw in the complexities of the human visual system and it's a miracle we get what we got. The picture is just as Peter sent it, except I cropped it. I'll defer the details of the structure to Peter.

I'm glad you included the high res link - this is one of the most beautiful stony matrixes I've ever seen! How accurate is the colour? Is the parallelogram shape (centre-left)a crystal, or coincidence of appearance?
