Hi Nina,
Some places have fantastic colored stones and it makes the job easy. Other places there will be everything but one or two colors so grey has to fill the gap. Amazingly, it is hard to notice the missing color – great fun to do (maybe a little difficult in Sweden at the moment – I see on your blog it is all covered in snow!)
Cheers
John

Wow, amazing colours in those pebbles. I probably couldn´t find all those colours in rocks here in Sweden, but a greyscale should be doable. Really cool idea, and I can just imagine being the finder of one of your circles – must be fantastic!

This is absolutely amazing, John. I’ve never seen such variety in color in stones… or in gum leaves, for that matter. The only place that comes close to your stones, that I know of in the US, is Glacier National Park where I remember seeing red and green but not blue and purple. Thanks for sharing these.
And a happy new year to you and your family.

Hi Linda,
they are great fun to do – I’ve left them all over the place. It becomes a habit!
Cheers,
John
