Photographs, particularly those taken at high magnification, can only provide a limited impression of mineral crystals. A more faithful representation can be given by images that convey the 3D nature of the crystals. Vivid 3D images of some mineral specimens featured in recent Journals can be seen by clicking their covers below. The images have been painstakingly created by John Chapman using focus-stacking techniques. Please contact John if you have enjoyed viewing them.
