This was a hard one to do since the shells were also white. But I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Walk-by shooting, tonight. Too many trees to see the old fashioned Shell design. Must return in Winter.

A beach full of shells.

An old Shell sign that appears to rise out of the desert. It's actually a full height sign at the local Shell distributor

There is just nothing like going to the beach and watching the waves roll come thundering in, smelling the salt in the air, and walking along the beach. I try to avoid doing this during the middle heat of the day, as the beach is littered with people, but prefer to get up just before sunrise and stroll along the water, with only one or two fishermen as company.

 

These shell pieces remind me of the quiet on the beach before the general public arrives, and as the shadows disappear, so does the silence, which is only masked by the sound of the waves.

Almost done with the shells now... :-)

Collecting Shells...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  

Me encanta escuchar el melodioso sonido de las conchas,

cuando el viento las mece y una con otra golpean suavemente.

and a fairly large piece of driftwood it was.

Mary's Shell was put in place on 25th September 2013 and is fixed in place by solid concrete foundations.

These lovely seashells on the beach at Grótta, Seltjarnarnes. Of all sizes and colors. I took a few and played with them.

We have so many shells on our beach that I even made a mobile (out) of them. Do you like it?

Each shell is made in a different yarn. Limpets stiches and shell added to the surface

Shells in Rhode Island

So far my best guess as to where this garage was is Pinner Road around about here www.google.com/maps/@51.5813282,-0.3443771,3a,75y,139.56h... There is a place called Keelers still showing on Google Streetview here www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.5530023,-0.3141458,3a,75y,235.8... but it isn't the same place. However I do have an old photo of this same Google Streetview but from the 1930's see below.

Shell Island, Wales, UK, 2 Jun 2015

random birds egg fragments I've found in the last couple of months, and shells I found at the beach.

I can't help but collect shells when I'm on the beach.

Another last minute cop out shot I'm afraid.

 

But I've not been very well this week, I've been recovering from a chest infection that seems to be getting worse now not better :(

 

I just want to get outside and take some outdoor shots, I'm rapidly running out of things to photograph inside. My daughter has a box of shells that she's picked up on trips to the beach, I haven't a clue what sort of shell this is, or what lived in it, but it came in handy for todays shot.

Messing around with my scanner. DOF isn't all that bad considering this is a flatbed scanner.

Liked the muted browns and blues of this

Shell Bay is across the water from the famous Sandbanks peninsula and takes its name from the fact that........it is a bay.........and there are lots of shells!!! So I thought I'd represent it in picture form!

Shells in a bowl under continuous light.

Shell Beach is a beach in the Shark Bay region of Western Australia, 45 kilometres south-east of Denham.

 

Shell Beach is not your everyday sand beach. It's a beach made of trillions of tiny shells, all from one type of animal.

 

The shell, known as the Hamelin Cockle, lives in prolific numbers in the area because of the super salty water. The discarded shells have heaped into massive piles up to 10m thick! Tonnes of bleached white shells forming a beach up to 1km wide and many kilometres long!
