Old oysters shells thick and castellated
That held once the pale jewel of their bodies
Such sweet
~~Mary Oliver
Seen this hidden Gem, from Chris barkers collection, 2 Isobal M Starts tucked far away from the Shell Garage, never seen anything like this before, especially being so far away from the station itself, not advertised well

Upper Swan, WA. Cootes tanker fuelling up. The manager of this servo, doesn't like motorists pulling up to the bowsers, facing the wrong way. Plenty of drivers are approached before they try to fuel up. And get told to come around in the correct way.
A fake Shell Oil billboard in Houston, July 19, 2012, reads "You Can't Run Your SUV on Cute, Let's Go." The sign mocks Shell's current advertising campaign with an image of a polar bear and cubs. By chasing after hard-to-reach oil in remote and dangerous places, Shell is putting polar bears, walruses and other Arctic wildlife at risk.
Situated on 1,500 feet of sugary white sand at the tip of Estero Island, Pink Shell Beach Resort & Spa offers a four-star resort experience in a playful and friendly atmosphere.

With textures from Shadowhouse Creations. Thanks again, Jerry.
This shot probably would have been better if the shells weren't so dirty. Because they are so small and delicate, it's hard to get them clean without damaging or losing one or two. I tried the Photoshop healing brush, but there's just too much to "clean". I decided that natural was better, in this case.

Rheinland-Raffinerie Shell, Köln-Godorf
A step away from 'designed' architecture, but equally impressive, industrial structures have a raw power and simple natural structure, resulting from the basic needs defined by the production process. They are the true examples of form-follows-function and we as architects could and should learn a lot from the built results.
This refinery is really just a hop, skip and a jump away from the town where we live, as it needs access to the harbor. An evening bike-ride with the dog let me experiment with time-exposures again. This time, Retsina didn't have to pose.
I found these shoes for under $10. I tucked them away, and rediscovered them again rooting through my pile of.... The leather sole is sumptuous, but I'm unsure if the straps will hold up to city streets. It's funny how my nails are painted the same color as the shell. I recently noticed my pseudo-Fred Flintstone toes, on my left foot, do a weird grip/curl thing. I'm not sure if I like that....

This was originally a Citgo/Royal Mart that was built and opened in 2000.
Pricey gasoline and diesel at this new Shell station in Regina. Good thing the station's not open yet! It does make me wonder why they didn't enter 888.8 in to test the complete LED display.
