Excellent! I have been collecting my own, not with photos but with samples of wood prepared as described by Hoadley. I mostly use a low power stereo microscope for ID by end grain.

Do you have any data on fluorescence? Under a strong 365nm UV light Redheart and Locust (black and honey) fluoresce strongly. I have found two sources with conflicting information. I have been looking for better data.
