WW & Project Black Take 7: Lots of Rocks and a Shell
Today is Wordless Wednesday and it's also day seven of Anna Carson's Project Black. I started out photographing the book and my black rocks for Project Black and then realized that it's also WW. I didn't want to do the two separately and it didn't seem right to do just Project Black, so.... as usual, I went kind of bonkers and spent hours taking pictures of all sorts of rocks. I love my rocks and I hope you enjoy them too. Oh... the shell is something I've had since I was a child.
Raven, your crystals and rocks are beautiful. We used to be quite to rockhounds and whenever we went on vacation would always look for rocks in the area. We had quite a collection at one time.
Great images, and arrangements! I lean toward the second shot the most, perhaps because it is the most different! I should try to put my little collection of crystals and stones into some sort of arrangement that looks nice!
Beautiful stones, Raven. My wife and I love collecting rocks and crystals. When people go on vacation, we ask them to bring a rock back from their travels. In spite of their strange look, they do it. We have rocks from all over the world. :)
I'm 70 years old going on twelve or sometimes 6, it depends on the day. Then again, sometimes I feel like I'm 110. I'm agoraphobic, permanently disabled. I live an odd life, but a relatively happy one. I have two cats, Merlin and Melissa. They are brother and sister and therefore known (it's a joke) as The Twins. They were 3 years old on May 7th.

Great ideas Raven!
I love that amethyst - my birthstone!
The black rocks are pretty cool.
The shell looks like abalone.
Cool treasures.
You are finding all sorts of black! Nice job!
A lot of Chinese enjoying collecting crystals, they believe that different crystals of different colors and shapes help in luck :)
Great idea to use the large abalone shell to hold the various rocks.
Hi Rave -- You have some really pretty rocks there. I like the quartz crystal.
Happy WW!

interesting photographs...these stones are beautiful.
i loved the second photo!

Spending hours taking pictures equates to going bonkers? Wow, I guess I lost it a long time ago then! Great shots. Keep on shooting. :)
What a fabulous rock collection!
I really love those polished stone balls. They look so cool and smooth, I just want to reach through the screen and touch them.
Beautiful collection. And fairly out of the ordinary for WW. Great idea!
Wow that's a great collection for a black theme! Happy WW
Wow, you have quite a collection there, Raven! Looks like you had fun with your camera!
That first one is my favourite one, I like the red in it!
Fantastic pictures. A great idea.
Great shots!! Thanks for sharing!! Happy WW! :o)
Wow!!! Love it. Happy WW!
What a lovely collection! I think my favorite are the polished stone spheres. I bet they feel wonderful to hold. Nice and heavy, cold, and smooth.
I must find the source of thie Project Black everybody's in to...

Nice shots and very interesting rocks.
Thank you for stopping by my blob and glad you like my photographs.

Happy WW, your photos are really pretty. I'm not that adept of a photographer and my still lifes always end up fuzzy!
Lots of great shots! That shell... you've taken wonderful care of it through the years. It looks great for its age!
I like the second shot -- the red sets off the black nicely.
Wow, Raven, those are awesome! That shell is unbelievable. It almost looks fake.
