I recently explained how rocks get their color, and that is exactly how this beautiful purple amethyst came to be! When rocks grow into a shape as this, with a natural point on top, they are called crystals. This amethyst crystal is part of my mineral collection.
This is another entry in the ColorChallenge which began. It's been such fun participating in it each day since I've been here!
