I've never tried doing a rubbing, although I've considered finding someone who can show me how to (I'd rather not just try it without knowing what I'm doing). <br />I like that first photo -- it has a really interesting texture. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-282332510068721962.post-28840381554723135442012-12-16T15:13:51.261+00:002012-12-16T15:13:51.261+00:00I've spent hours looking at photos of weathere...I've spent hours looking at photos of weathered stones trying to find any little curve or line that looks like a letter, trying to figure out what's inscribed on them.
