Suiseki Storm
My Grandfather is on a rock collecting kick. We have a whole picnic table full of interesting rocks he has collected and I’ve made 7 daiza in the past 5 days.
Here is one of them. More pics to come. Suiseki - river stone - 水石 Daiza - pedestal - 台座 The Spire! front right back left

I dont have a lot of personal experience with suiseki, but im posting because no-one else has! i think you have a nice selection of stones, but remember to only take the ones you need or particularly like, if we all went out and picked a load of interesting stones there wouldnt be many left for anyone else.
Having said that, nice stones and i do love suiseki, shame its difficult to find stones of interest here n/m Rowan
