Smile on Saturday.
Shells.
“Seashells are proof that nothing is ever really empty. The rush of the immortal wind whispers it’s secrets to those who stop to listen.”

Theme: Four
Size: Less than 3x3 inches
The subjects are 4 sea shells. I placed the 3 small round spiral sea shells on a bigger flat seashell.
Only one natural light source from 4 o'clock.
Focus is on the spiral tip of the smallest round sea shell ( 1cm diameter )
Many thanks for your visit, comments and faves...it is always appreciated..
Peaceful MM
Love the can-can layers and the tiger stripes pattern of this shell.
I always have been intrigued about seashells, they're so beautiful. I like to collect them and I'll be posting them when I can. I'll try to identify the shells on the photos if I find the name. If not, maybe you can help me or correct me if you know the name.
I'll catch with you tomorrow night. Have a great day!🙋♀️
This is my Camino shell from my travel in Spain in 2015. The Scallop Shell is used as a symbol of direction along the Camino, pointing pilgrims towards Santiago. Pilgrims also wear this symbol themselves which further enhances the camaraderie along this great walking trail. My Camino story in my book On foot in France (my 2019 Camino on the Puy-en-Velay route towards Spain is available on Amazon).
Il s'agit de ma coquille Camino provenant de mon voyage en Espagne en 2015. La coquille Saint-Jacques est utilisée comme un symbole de direction le long du Camino, indiquant aux pèlerins la direction de Saint-Jacques. Les pèlerins portent également ce symbole eux-mêmes, ce qui renforce encore la camaraderie le long de ce grand chemin de randonnée. Mon histoire de Camino dans mon livre en anglais On Foot In France (mon Camino 2019 sur le chemin du Puy-en-Velay vers l'Espagne est disponible sur Amazon).
Out on a walk today I found a small patch of snow that hadn't yet melted...yay!! Hunting around quickly for something to use I found this tiny snail shell hidden under some leaves. And then got very wet and muddy lying down to photograph it!
Thankyou dear friends for all your support, comments and faves.

Here we have a real close-up of a shell showing the rows of ridges of a shell.
Captured at f22 not an f-stop I tend to use much as the image can appear soft but managed to get it right here, more by luck than judgement I would say.

Happy Macro Monday everyone.
I had been playing around with this shell and decided it needed some water drops. But that still wasn't working, so I dropped the shell into a glass of water and amazingly one of the water drops stayed put, right where it looks, to me, like the eye of a fish.
The shell is 2.6cm, or 26mm, from tip to toe.
Two shells which I collected from a beach many years ago.
'Two' for 'Macro Mondays'
Thank you for your views, faves and comments.
Happy MM
