Feeling no great, but willing to share pics of pretty rocks, dogs, and flowers for anyone that needs a wee dopamine boost.

The Wainui Falls are pretty large. About 20m high with a high flow. Enough water coming down to keep the cliffs more bare of moss and growth. #photography

I decided to really kick back and relax after submitting my thesis on deep sea rocks (cold) by going to a talk at a bar last night about deep sea rocks (hot) ((hydrothermal vents are pretty neat))

Good evening from Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia. I grew up around lighthouses but this one is on pretty rocks so it makes it special.

Now I'm at the imperial palace garden. Pretty nice rocks here.

I have a problem. I want all the pretty rocks. There’s a place near Madras, Or who caters to this desire. Years ago, they would let you dig for Thundereggs, which you would crack open to reveal an opalescent center. Now, they just have piles of them along with heaps if rocks from around the world.

First batch of rock tumbling, step 2 of many. They are so pretty. I love rocks.

This place is so pretty

zeyla let me photograph some of their rocks. i don't know rocks so don't ask me about them they're just pretty

Criccieth yesterday afternoon was sunny & mild, rain today 🙁

Taking a much needed vaycay! Love the Alps <3

more from vacation because i still can’t get over how pretty this is

Rocks are finally done!!! Look at how shiny and pretty they are!!

The Donegal coastline is pretty nice

Look at how flippin pretty this state is.

We stopped briefly by Lake Tahoe today. It’s so pretty!

I turned 30 the other day so I bought myself some pretty rocks 🥹💖

History is a bumpy sharp multifacted rock. Mythology is that rock run through a tumbler to sand off the rough bits into a smooth pretty stone of similar color. PR is that rock chiselled into a mutli-facted gemstone ensconced in a distracting setting.

Have a pretty sunny picture, to remind you spring will return. This is from the Japanese garden at Holland Park

okay, goodnight I'm off 🙂‍↕️🫡 tomorrow's the last of the very tough days. I will be back to regular funsies posting afterwards, I promise. no more whining about work. have this pretty picture of the big rocks outside 🪨

❄️the icy blue gemstones on hrid's shoulder pads (and the rest of the nifl siblings' armor tbh) resemble paraiba tourmaline, and those appear to be pretty sturdy and desirable. it suits him 🥰 🌻 sky would be a ruby bc that's my birthstone and bc they represent happiness, good luck and passion.

Some of my pretty rocks! I know at least one is an agate. All of them are from Lake Superior. ❤️

Pretty rocks I found while digging. #rocks

Anyone else get a monthly reminder to empty the truck of rocks? 🙄 I'm pretty sure I have rocks in a few other people's vehicles too, actually.....

May 10/11 2024 G5 Aurora Super Storm. I was lucky to be on the west coast of Tasmania, where skies were pretty clear. At morning onset, Ocean Beach Strahan. In the evening, Couta Rocks in the North West.

I feed the neighborhood crows, and sometimes they leave me pretty rocks. This is the 2nd. I have also received a blue button.

Yes! Finally! Those rocks may be pretty but they are a serious pain to cut around.

March Pretty Rocks Club (All About Beryls) is finally available for individual purchase! https://wyrdingstudios.com/products/march-pretty-rocks-club-all-about-beryls

I've mostly sculpted the terrain and added lighting, which I'm pretty happy with. Later I'll continue adding things like trees and rocks, although there's still a lot more to be done than just trees and rocks. #gamedev #unrealengine

Is anyone able to identify some of these crystals? They are from a jewelers personal collection. The off cuts that were left over. (I can send more pics if needes) If not just enjoy some pretty rocks #geology #crystals #rocks

Not me reliably voting for the gemstones because @shmarr.bsky.social likes pretty rocks. ;)

ALSO all palm stones are still 35% off! Take some of these pretty rocks off my hands* * and give me money to buy more tumbler grit so I can polish even more of them and compound the problem www.etsy.com/shop/tarotdr...

I found an old road at the lower end of my property and there's a pond down there. It is a deep dark hollow but its cool. I tried to hike in a different way but found a large fresh bear scat pile and all I had was a stick so I got out of there pretty quick. There's rock and ferns I can bring home.

Pretty wild water clarity in Manitowoc today. Quagga mussels have cleared up the water but a lot of time here we have waves stirring up the fine sediment.

Apparently, the fungi are pretty fond of this spot next to the creek.

I bought some pretty rocks for my collection today 😍

Another pretty lily in the pond! 🌱 #flowers

The Colorado River is so pretty!

Throwback 11 years back in time. I am afraid those glaciers above Vent look noticeably different today. #mountainmonday #alps #oetztal #tyrol

Today is #RocksforYoongi and #WaterforJin taken on a hike through some of the northern mountains near Chiang Mai in Thailand 💜 lots of pretty little waterfalls on those trails~ I need to go on another mountain trip soon, I love Florida an dmy beached but I miss terrain and hiking 🥲

My dad spent a solid 15 minutes hucking rocks at it, causing cascades of sand and pebbles

Nigretta Falls in the Western District of Victoria not far from Hamilton. Not much water at the moment. Would be pretty good after some heavy rains with more water cascading down.

A pretty view from Granite Tors on Sunday, Chena River State Recreation Area, Alaska. The granite rocks are actually lighter in color; the black coloration is from the lichen they are covered in. In my hiking guide: www.lwpetersen.com/alaska-guide... #Alaska #hiking

Andrena prunorum are like the super models of the bee world. They know how to work the camera. They seem to like nesting under these pretty rocks. #bees #keremeosbc
