Beautiful image of some REALLY cool stones Katherine. I'd never heard of Petoskey stones before, and now I want to find some :-). Melanie (mlynn)

Katherine, I like the lighting, the background contrast, and the smooth texture of these interesting stones. MFC

Neat subject, Katherine. When my children were young, part of the summer vacation ritual was to search for Petoskey stones. Nice lighting on your image. Bev

Never heard of these before. When I saw the thumbnail I thought they were potatos with a difference... lol. Very interesting stones and well photographed. Ann C
