Ruby Beach is a beautiful place, it was pouring rain, the tide was high, everyone was asleep in the car so I snapped a couple of photos and we were on our way.
Soapstone from the Precambrian of Montana, USA. (~9.25 centimeters across at its widest)
Metamorphic rocks result from intense alteration of any previously existing rocks by heat and/or pressure and/or chemical change. This can happen as a result of regional metamorphism (large-scale tectonic events, such as continental collision or subduction), burial metamorphism (super-deep burial), contact metamorphism (by the heat & chemicals from nearby magma or lava), hydrothermal metamorphism (by superheated groundwater), shear metamorphism (in or near a fault zone), or shock metamorphism (by an impact event). Other categories include thermal metamorphism, kinetic metamorphism, and nuclear metamorphism. Many metamorphic rocks have a foliated texture, but some are crystalline or glassy.
Soapstones are crystalline-textured, talc-rich metamorphic rocks. Essentially pure talcose soapstone is called steatite, whereas "soapstone" refers to impure varieties. “Soapstone” and “steatite” are sometimes considered synonyms. Being composed of talc (magnesium hydroxy-silicate - Mg3Si4O10(OH)2), steatite and soapstone have a slick, soapy feel and are very soft - they are easily scratched. Common impurities in soapstone and steatite include chrysotile (= white asbestos) and pyrite - this sample of "talc ore" from southwestern Montana is asbestos-free, but very tiny specks of pyrite are present.
Southwestern Montana's "talc deposits" are hosted in Archean marbles. The talc formed by multiphasic metamorphism involving hydrothermal magnesium metasomatism of marble, replacement, deformation, and recrystallization. The hot fluids that formed the talc were associated with intrusive activity during the late Mesoproterozoic, about 1.1 to 1.3 billion years ago
Locality: Regal Mine, east-southeast of the town of Dillon, Dillon Mining District, Ruby Range, southwestern Montana, USA
This Ruby-throated Hummingbird has been hanging out on my Mexican Sunflowers all day. Something is not quite right with it. Maybe the heat has gotten to it, maybe something worse. It's a little slow and hardly scared of me. It's been sitting on the flowers all day. Hopefully, it'll be OK. Regardless, I'm thankful it allowed me to get the best photo I could possibly get of a Hummingbird, and I'm happy I've been able to provide a spot for it to rest and eat. If you want Hummingbirds, Mexican Sunflowers are the way to go. I've grown them for two years now and they really bring in the Hummingbirds, Bumble Bees and butterflies, specifically Monarchs and Swallowtails.
PARA USO PESSOAL
Depois que doei mais de 100 esmaltes, me senti mais leve para adquirir mais alguns...mas estes, eu não doo não....rs!
OPI It's my year (o que dizer deste esmalte? Hum...diferente de tudo que já vi por aí)

OPI Black Cherry Chutney (preto com brilhinhos cereja, muito lindo, dá um charme ao esmalte)
China Glaze Ruby Pumps (A Liza disse que era o esmalte mais lindo que ela já havia usado, e fui atrás...e é lindíssimo mesmo!)

No telling how many photos were taking to get these images. They are extremely sketchy and aggressive.
This was our first sand drawing directed by me Jamie Wardley and with the art work of Mark Yates (www.markyates.co.uk) It was 15 x 20 meters and done in two hours leaving time for a hearty lunch and a sand castle.
Ruby in Gardiner, NY, planned a very successful crutch drive for Crutches 4 Kids with multiple donation drop-boxes in her community!
