4 Little Rocks

I was going through some of the stuff that Nate and I had picked up recently during one of our beach trips and I found these 4 little rocks. The biggest rock was just a bit longer than a quarter as you can see in one of the images below.
Anyway, I started off by stacking the rocks on top of one another and then tried to stack them in different configurations. The last couple were quite challenging especially given how small these rocks were. I could have made it a whole lot easier by using some wax or something to hold them together, but that would have spoiled all the fun. I think I might try doing this again with a different set of rocks some other evening.





The photos and captions are great. Its amazing how something so simple and basic as pebbles can be so artfully mesmerizing
