Between the French and Russian museums, there is some amazing malachite. Your photo captures the rare color of this beautiful mineral. How great that you are able to photograph these wonderful items inside.

I think 'Malachite' is a cool sounding word and beautiful crystal. Lovely photo!!

Excellent composition. And I assume that you could not move the vases to position them for your photo.

Such a pretty color. The form of the vases are lovely. And of course the reflections are perfect.

This is one of those reflection shots that comes to life if you give it a little time. Lots of nice reflections and colors to be seen.

"Clever" le dedoublement pour la photo!

These are so beautiful, Ciel. It is hard to imagine that malachite is found in nature. It looks like the kind of thing that animators would have come up with.

I love malachite and this is a fantastic shot of it. I brought a beautiful real big piece from Angola but unfortunatelly it was stollen when my little house on the south (which I don't have it anymore) was robbed in my absence.
