These are beehive snail shells (they are very old and getting harder to find) I have used a lot of them on the shell boxes that I used to make, but I have a few left! This photograph does not show how yellow the stripe is, but it's very yellow and the other color is brown. They are fairly small snails, I have never seen one alive and I don't think there is much know about them except that the shell is coveted by collectors (perfect specimens of course...these are a bit banged up)...
Winter brings frosty windows and time spent waiting for them to defrost in the mornings...good thing I carry my camera and have something to do while I wait! And I never cease to be amazed by the intricate detail of the ice crystals in the frost...I could sit and look at God's artwork for hours!!
This photo was taken in 2013 during my previous Project 365…please visit my album for this “REMASTERED” Project 365 as I revisit each day of 2013 for additional photos to share!!

Posed street portrait from my 100 Strangers Project taken in Glasgow, Scotland. An alternate shot of Ben in colour. Such a pleasurable encounter with an interesting character. Enjoy full screen by pressing 'L' or clicking on the image.
This warty little gourd was photographed sitting on a log at Pammel State Park near Winterset, Iowa.
Developed using Darktable 3.6.0. Additional color grading with GIMP 2.10.24 and G'MIC 2.7.9 filters. A light texture overlay was also added to the background area.
Royer 6x9 folding camera, ca 1950 (?) with Angenieux triplet lens.
This is a capable lens, but I have not yet mastered its depth of field. I think I'll play around with it some more, also to get unexpected result, like this image I've found in my back-log.
I couldn't find the details on film and developer. I I do, I submit them.
For the Macro Mondays Theme: Amore
sometimes love is complicated
sometimes love hurts
sometimes love seems further away than ever
open your heart and love will find its way
because love is all you need.
Thank you for your time, faves and comments, it's much appreciated.
Happy Macro Mondays
A little tribute to a master: my friend Robson (RCastro) because he's one of my favourite photographers...
