First gold of the year from our place . Just enough water running to divert into a 1 inch pipe to fill a wash tub to pan in . Just fine gold recovered but the macro on the camera turns it into nuggets .
Just beautiful! Maybe I should do the same with my fines, but I know they are beat-up and rounded so I doubt they will have the character those lovely pieces of yours have.
I was wondering how much your micro magnifies? I assume that is a function of your camera. Mine has an up-close function for flowers and other such; bright light only but I don't think it magnifies nearly as much.
Again, very nice. Thanks for sharing the pictures and the idea of using a macro function to look at the gold under magnification.
Great pics, southfork. I use a 60x pocket magnifier to observe these. I love how the smaller pieces have lots of great detail like their larger brethren. You've inspired me to break out my macro lens and see what I can capture!
