I did manage to take some pictures of all the stones by themselves.

These are here for your enjoyment, Thanks Al

Al, great stones!! Here we dont really have stones of interest and it is mostly sandstone which doesnt form *great* shapes, just simple rounds with little interest, so its great to see what other people can do!!
Thanks for sharing
Rowan

I have some information about some of the stones. #23432 is an imported stone from Italy. #23433 is a cut Pennsylvania jasper stone. The stone was collected by Sean Smith who also made the diaza. I collected #23433 in Idaho. It has a natural base and it has one of the first diaza I ever made. #23435 and #23436 are Northern California stones. #23436 is a Northern California stone collected during the GSBF convention trip last October. #23437 is a stone imported from China. I am not sure of the origin of the other stones.
