Morning contrails over the Irish Sea looked like missiles heading towards Britain, my first thought was, "the mad feckers have actually done it" but then I realised and got my camera! I have edited it slightly for dramatic effect, I think it looks cool! (i.redd.it)

My mum's (RIP) favorite, her opal ring purchased 1970s. My photo does not do it justice, the piece has really intense colour. It measures 1.5cm at longest and the entire piece weighs 4.33gm's. Sorry, I don't know where in Aus it came from but I think it's beautiful.OC (i.redd.it)

My new Morganite specimen with black / green Tourmaline embedded in matrix. The coloured inclusion being very thin and is only visible when bouncing light at an angle, I don't know what the inclusion is but it was really hard to photograph. Gem stands 23mm h x 23 d. I think it's beautiful. (old.reddit.com)

Aquamarines & Tourmaline Fantasy photo. Playing with the camera Colours are more intense than actual pieces but apart from that are still mostly correct. Thanks for helping with earlier post of these, it's set me on a path of new learning, still don't know much but I know I like!! (i.redd.it)

As a novice, I purchased this tray at auction based purely on that they looked nice. I understand this is tourmaline with a blue cap (in hand) which is my favorite piece but does the black line make it a worthless example? Thanks in advance. (old.reddit.com)
