Here are some cool micrographs I took last night. All images are true color, 
brightfield, reflected light. horizontal scale is 3.3mm. I'm not the best 
photomicroscopist around, so please forgive some slightly blurry images and 
some obvious sloppy polishing marks :)

*warning* NOT dial up friendly - big pics - 1200x1600 - 250kb or so each!

First a new nwa LL3.7:

A crystal filled vug inside a small slice of the ungrouped aconderite nwa 
1839 I have for sale on ebay -an extraterrestrial geode! (I had soem depth 
of focus problems with the pics, I will try to shoot them again with a LWD 
objective and post more images):

And some general shots of NWA 1839 - if I croped the pics so that they didnt 
look like microscope shots you might confuse this stuff for a pallesite, 
dont ya think?:

I have images of a few other interesting micrographs that I'll probably post 
tomorrow or the next day..
