1. Looking at this again. Does anyone see a partially cloudy sky right before sunrise or sundown with a pine tree ridge line on the tallest dark purple ones reflection? Did you mean to do that Alex? Can you see it?

2. Well I think it looks like my favorite of all time, the Amethyst.

   • I wrote this before I read the comments, I see I was not the only one. Yes, blue works. Amethyst can have both red or blue secondary colors. The ones you find in say like in Brazil will be the dark purple ones, the ones found in the US are muted and have more blue tint to them. So, you have both kinds here.
