This image reminds me of the gas station images you saw back in the day. I waited until this was empty and no interfering traffic to take this image. Laowa Venus 17mm f/1.8 at f/4.

I think this is one of my favourite things to photograph, in the near vicinity to the house, the light always makes it look special

The shells she sells are surely seashells.

So if she sells shells on the seashore,

I took this with a canon macro 100mm 1:2.8 USM lens that I borrowed from my friend Jonathan Hood.

Sadly he has it back now.

Been away from the computer throughout the festive season, so apologies for not commenting at all!

Here's the first post, nothing special but I quite liked the orange of the shell against the dead leaf litter.
