A lovely iris comb beside a lovely maple leaf comb. I originally left the maple behind in the store, thinking I had spent enough money and didn't need another comb. Then I dreamed about the maple comb that night (yeah, I dream about kanzashi...) and decided to go look for it the next morning. It was right where I left it, so I bought it.
Murex pecten or the Venus Comb Shell is a wonder of the ocean. It's hard to believe how a sea snail can create such an amazing structure to protect it self, with such intricate design. This is the smaller of my 2 examples of this shell, which I haven't shot before , but although it is smaller, it is equally intriguing.

Theridiidae Checklist: Comb-Footed Spiders
Comb-footed spiders from the family Theridiidae Sundevall, 1833 are small spiders, but it is one of the largest family of spiders living in tree canopies. The “comb”, or serrated bristles on tarsi IV gives the spiders in this family its common name. While some theridiids construct three-dimensional webs or cob webs, several genera do not build webs at all.
Late in the day, the light picks up the fissures, folds and textures of Comb Ridge. Cairns in the foreground lead to the left, pointing the way to the Procession Panel, a large series of pictographs portraying a hunting scene. Comb Ridge is now protected as part of the Bear's Ears National Monument.
This slick rock is as inviting as it looks--with a little ingenuity and persistence, you can go nearly anywhere. Comb Ridge runs north/south for almost 80 miles.
