Pleasing color palette. Interesting patterns. I like the composition with the band running through the middle.

Hi Sandy,

Bacteria are what drives the life on planet earth and these are incredible. I like the patterns of blue, orange, and brown. Your comp is pretty good and agree with Allen's assessment of the composition. Well done...................Jim

Oh Sandy, I love those colors! They compliment each other so well. Great shapes and textures in this as well. Nicely seen and captured.

The light brings out the shapes and textures very nicely, Sandy, with the layering of the minerals clearly captured. Lovely abstract !

Blue and gold are a great color combination and this view shows that very well. The mix of shapes and structures makes a fine abstract.
