Photomicrographs of feldspathic (L) and lithic (R) greywacke. The top images are in plane-polarized light; the bottom images are in cross-polarized light. Cements fill the pore spaces.

For some reason the images aren't showing up for me. I'm using Sync on my phone - are these images formatted correctly? If they are I'm gona send a bug report to the dev 🙃
