Minerals

Amethyst, Carbon, and Copper.

The ROM has a great minerals collection, ranging from jewellery to meteorites. One of the most amazing pieces in the collection is a large sheet of natural copper that has wonderful complex curves. It could easily have found it a home in the Art Gallery of Ontario. Next time I'm there, I may do a video based entirely on it.

Recording the audio might get me kicked out, though.

I have broken the links to hundreds and hundreds of photos, which will take a long time to repair. The workaround is to replace "photo.matthewpiers" in the link URL with "matthewpiers.smugmug". Awkward, but only temporary.

This is happening because I have revamped matthewpiers dot com. More of what I write and photograph will be going there, so check it out as well.
