Found this snail shell under some old plant pots in the garden. The shell was no more than 2cm in diameter and still had it's occupant. It was not long before the snail popped it's head out to see what was happening on such a cold day. After having his photo taken the little guy was carefully put back where he had been found.
A Lewes exterior.
Both these lei were brought back from Rapa Nui. The black shells in the far lei are Black Nerites, which certainly occur on Rapa Nui beaches, as do small cowries, but I suppose they could be from countless places in the Pacific.
This is my original shot for the Macro Mondays theme of spirals i.e. until my knowledgeable husband pointed out that strictly speaking, a shell like this is a helix ( same goes for snail shells)

Shell Mex House is a grade II listed building situated at number 80 Strand, London. The current building was built in 1930–31 on the site of the Hotel Cecil and stands behind the original facade of the Hotel and between the Adelphi and the Savoy Hotel. Broadly Art Deco in style, it was designed by Frances Milton Cashmore of the architectural firm of Messrs Joseph.
I picked this up at the shore of Lake Michigan quite a few years ago. I have my lake glass collection in a jar and while looking for something 'Macro' to practice with, I thought of it.
I used glass from a picture frame to set it on and lit it slightly from underneath and to the side.
It took several shots and tries to find one I liked.
This is smaller than a pencil eraser.

I was happy with it.

Detail of tile in an arched doorway in the St. Louis Union Station Hotel. Union Station was designed by Theodore Link and opened in 1894. The station was converted into a hotel (now a Hilton) in the 1980s.
Shell, Wyoming; the old one-room school was used until sometime in the 1980's. It's now an office for a local consulting firm.
Three out of a large brood of shell ducklings seen at Slimbridge Wetlands Centre on a very wet day last spring.
Saturday afternoon I had a very good beach walk along Lake Michigan. The weather felt more like October than late November.
I saw this shotgun shell next to the zebra mussel shells and the driftwood. The beach is in the city, so the shotgun shell must have washed ashore from somewhere else. Were boaters hunting for ducks?
