 Doesn't look like much until you see it full-size.

Another specimen from the NMT Mineral Museum.

I like how the green malachite looks so much like trees on a miniature landscape.

And of course, the cool calmness of the blue and green are the reason this is now on my monitor :)

Nice one, man, very cool. The subtle lighting is perfect. I didn't even know that malachite formed in this way--I always think of the highly striated stuff you see jewelry made out of.

Great colours and the detail on the larger version is fascinating

VERY nice. I love the focal point. Nice darkness and blur around the edges for icons too. Plus, I am a fan of blue. Anything blue makes me smile so bonus points there :)

From the thumb I thought it was a landscape :) haha

Very cool. I've been using my entry from last year's puzzle macro challenge as my desktop at work for quite some time now. Time to change it.
