Re: Brecciation and photography

Hi Matt,

Earlier you mentioned about brecciation:

"composed of angular broken rock fragments held together by a mineral
cement or fine grained matrix.  Basically it means a bunch of broken rocks
assembled together!:)"

Matt, are conglomerates polymict breccias? Also, what rock types
(metamorphic, sedimentary, etc.) can be breccias. One last question, how
does the cementing process work in meteorites such as the brecciation
difference between Peekskill and Bison.

Oh, Matt, last year on this List you asked me a question about
photographing meteorites. Well, I put together a response for you, but it
got out of hand and I decided to send it to Joel at Meteorite! instead of
posting it here (sorry about that Art). Anyway, if you have any other
questions about photographing meteorites, please ask.

For the group: I have talked with several of you including master
photographers such as Michael Casper about using digital cameras to capture
images of meteorites . Since I get hit off-List with questions about
digital photography, it may be a point of interest for this List to share
equipment opinions and shooting techniques.

Sincerely,

Martin
