Macro Monday
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
in my opinion, one of the most beautiful buildings in Berlin, almost a hundred years old, but still an architectural icon

Last night we had a football evening full of excitement, and in order to reduce the tension since we were rooting for different national teams, we decided to use that time and crack nuts while watching TV. The action was successful because we didn't get nervous so mush and at the end we had 2 kg of cleaned walnuts.
HSoS!
Siamo come conchiglie, belli e duri fuori, ma la parte più fragile e vera sta ben nascosta dentro di noi.
We are like shells, beautiful and hard outside, but the most frail and true is well hidden within us.

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.
Imagine this small harbor in Michigan's Upper Peninsula about 140 years ago. There would have been lumberjacks cutting hundred-year old White Cedar trees, stone cutters fashioning blocks of dolomite from the cliffs, with crews bringing the logs and stone to the bustling town of Fayette at this shoreline. That would have been the beehive of activity, building the company town of Fayette, with furnaces to produce charcoal that fired the furnaces for extracting iron from the ore taken from nearby mines.
Today, Fayette is a "ghost town" that has been restored and maintained as a Michigan State Historical Park.
This green turtle was resting under some soft coral. Unlike in most other images, the details in the eye are visible in this one. I can't help but wonder what is the turtle thinking?
Green turtles are endangered for all the predictable reasons (e.g, habitat loss, bycatch, hunting, etc.) I hope all of the many conservation efforts are able to bring them back to a healthy population.
Sea Turtle Conservation Bonaire is one group dedicated to their restoration. www.bonaireturtles.org/wp/
