My friend Tracy Hodson is visiting for a few days and we decided to each make a small mosaic. I’m recovering from foot surgery and wanted to work casual: very relaxed and loose.
I bought a couple of ammolite specimens while in western Canada and wanted to use one of them for this mosaic. They are very sensitive to the light so very challenging to photograph. Here are some detail shots of the ammolite to give you a better idea:
About Ammolite:
“Ammolite is the coloured gemstone that comes from Canadian ammonites with a distinct, and vibrant rainbow colour. Globally, these are only found along the St. Mary River, south of Lethbridge, in Western Canada. This stunning iridescent gem, received its official gemstone status by the World Jewelry Confederation in 1981.” —Ammolite Museum Find out more.
