Shells and sandstone on Hilbre Island. Hilbre Island is the largest of a group of three islands at the mouth of the estuary of the River Dee, the border between England and Wales at this point.

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.”

 

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..

The happy life does not mean loving what we possess, but possessing what we love. Possession of what we love takes place in an act of cognition, in seeing, in intuition, in contemplation.

This is another shot from our trip to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State last September. I'm having fun digging through the archives. When I zoomed right into the orginal image, I could see that she was holding a shell, not a cell :)

Mary's Shell at Sunset - Cleveleys, Lancashire

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).

  

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

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!

The shell of the common Garden snail, Cornu aspersum, contains pigment-containing cells known as chromatophores. A physiological colour change can be initiated in these cells to allow the animal to change its colour to match its surroundings and so provide protective camouflage. The mechanism is similar to that found in cephalopods such as cuttlefish and octopus, although the snail is much slower to produce the colour change than these other molluscs.

 

For Looking Close on Friday theme 'Orange'.

 

Sorry, I wanted to post this on April 1 but that would have missed the theme.

 

No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.

Macro Mondays theme: Rows

 

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.

I have quite a collection of shells as I cant' resist picking up those that catch my eye. I mainly use them to decorate planters - HSoS!

 

Thanks to skeletalmess for the texture!
