"O conchiglia marina, figlia
della pietra e del mare biancheggiante,
tu meravigli la mente dei fanciulli."
"O seashell, daughter
stone and sea whitish,
you wonder the mind of children."
SALVATORE QUASIMODO
Outside of an abalone shell that has been polished....It goes everywhere I live as a reminder of our trips to British Columbia
Macro Mondays: "Necklace"
A seashell necklace that I got on a vacation to Hawaii.
The image is about 7 cm (2.75 inches) on the long edge.
When a seashell has been left behind at a grave site and it not a part of the actual headstone, it means a loved one made a pilgrimage to the deceased’s grave, leaving a shell behind as a reminder of their visit.

Ugh, this one took over four hours to setup. This shells are tiny. Cleaning the shells, selecting the right one, oiling them up, so they would not dry out during the set up was time consuming. More so, as the setup collapsed and shells hit the carpet and collected all kinds of fibers. I had to ditch the first attempts and start from scratch.
For the theme Seashells. It is a shell from my very small collection of shells I have found on various beaches in Canada. The shell has to be unique in some way in order for me to take it home. I think most shells should be left on the beaches. But today, when I can’t go to the beach, I was happy to create this scene on my back deck. I placed the shell on a printed picture of flowing water that I took a few years ago. There were some orange fall reflections in the water and this background seemed to complement the colours of the shell. Happy Friday everyone!
A sampling of the various shapes, textures, colors and patterns of these amazing forms of marine life!
