Spent the Day at Long Point for the Fiddlers Picnic. Walked around and found these rocks.

Took this photo at Long Point. I liked the mix of green and rock.

This is a great challenge. Who would have thought stones could be so colorful and beautiful -- something I never really paid attention to. And just as you're viewing a series of sort-of-similar photos, then comes Matt's photo of the rock shards. Great stuff.
