made a shadowbox for a friend....
it includes the actual shell (on the rt.), that held the ring when he proposed to her.
the picture on the right points out the location that he proposed.
smaller, colored shells that are attached to the bow were from her shower decorations.
thanks for looking!
Submitted by Katya Small to the 2012 myPQB Story Contest - A shell on Rathtrevor Beach (Vancouver Island, BC).
En esta oportunidad, transportamos un imponente shell de 6,70 metros de diámetro sobre una plataforma portante de 4 líneas hidráulicas modulares.
Ello implica un importante desafío en materia de transporte terrestre por cuanto, como podrán observar en la galería de fotos que compartimos, debemos atravesar ciudades y pueblos y surcar carreteras de asfalto, de ripio y caminos de montaña.
One of Ruth's shell images printed small, 6.5x4.5, It was probably a 5x7 negative contact print when she was still using view cameras. It is beautifully lit and arranged on wood that has a similar texture and pattern. She loved seeing those connections in nature. Her apartment was filled with natural artifacts. Please see the notes under the other shell photograph in this collection.

The Shell Grotto is an ornate subterranean passageway in Margate, Kent. Almost all the surface area of the walls and roof is covered in mosaics created entirely of seashells, totalling about 2,000 square feet (190 m2) of mosaic, or 4.6 million shells. It was discovered in 1835 but its age remains unknown. The grotto is a Grade I listed building and is open to the public.
Random shell fragments on white.
This is a conbination of two versions of a single photo to make one.
The base layer is the optimized RGB photo,
then a duplicate converted to black and white was placed on top.
Lastly, the opacity of that top layer was adjusted to what you see now.
There are two white shell pieces that have been pushed right to the edge of higlight clipping
on the right side, but both on my monitor and in the print they are in zone 10.
No texture, but the edges can be seen.

I went to visit an old friend - the shell tree on Basham Beach - I was not disappointed as someone has been busily adding interesting things...
