An older photo that I found recently, showing some of the shells I've collected on Gulf of Mexico beaches.
Beaches are full of different kind of empty shells and coral pieces and I have seen hundreds of different ways to use them as decoration. Here's one of them in many of those massage place the beach is also having.
One of the buildings near the cathedral is built of stone containing fossilized shells millions of years old, quarried from the region, which is now a long way from the sea.
"Vous pouvez y voir des fossiles de coquillages datant de plusieurs millions d’années. Cette pierre, le grès coquillier, a été extraite dans le Nord du Canton de Vaud. Elle atteste de la présence dans toute la région de vastes mers, il y a fort longtemps."

Fun assortment of shell decor in my bathroom. Have had this shelf for years! Original paint color inspired my bathroom colors which have been this way for over 10 years now....way before the aqua color revolution of today. Maybe it's time for a change?
A very unexpected sight as we stood at the end of Shellness beach looking out at the birds on the mudflats - we turned and saw this dramatic painting of a male marsh harrier - on an old WW2 concrete blockhouse.

Shell - Designed by Tomoko Fuse, folded by me.
Around 30cm of thickish, beautiful painted paper, given to me by Christiane from Switzerland. Thanks a lot again, also for the workshop, it was great!! :)
I learned it on the meeting in Prien and i had a lot of fun there. The workshop gave a lot of other great results, which you can see here: www.flickr.com/photos/faltwelt/14588898346/in/photostream/
Hope you like it!

This is a new fold and photo of this model. I didnt like the old fold, as the shell wasnt completely 3d and i didnt like the old photo either, so i decided to redo both. I think both, fold and photo improved ;)
The paper is the same btw, it is easy to unfold it and recolapse it :)
I was playing around with the shell extensions, and came upon this. There's enough room to fit various Technic connectors through the gap.
For a picture based on a poem - A-Shelling Peas by Harry Breaker Morant (114 Pictures in 2014 # 55 & 197/365 in 2014) See first comment box to find out about Harry.
"Now, all the world is green and bright
Outside the latticed pane;
The fields are decked with gold and white,
And Spring has come again.
But though the world be fair without,
With flow'rs and waving trees,
'Tis pleasanter to be about
Where Nell's a-shelling peas.
Her eyes are blue as cloudless skies,
And dimples deck her cheeks;
Whilst soft lights loiter in her eyes
Whene'er she smiles or speaks.
So all the sunlit morning-tide
I dally at mine ease,
To loaf at slender Nelly's side
When Nell's a-shelling peas.
This bard, who sits a-watching Nell,
With fingers white and slim,
Owns up that, as she breaks each shell,
She also "breaks up" him;
And could devoutly drop upon
Submissive, bended knees
To worship Nell with apron on -
A saint a-shelling peas.
The tucked-up muslin sleeves disclose
Her round arms white and bare -
'Tis only "shelling peas" that shows
Those dainty dimples there.
Old earth owns many sights to see
That captivate and please; -
The most bewitching sight for me
Is Nell a-shelling peas."
