Collected at Grandview the other night. Remind me of angel's wings. Harsh shadow, yes, but had to shoot it then & there!

After the heavy seas there are piles of shells on parts of the beach. I always find them a challenge to my imagination
Time to move on from Jury's Gap to our next stop this time Dungeness. Why, Melanie needed to use the loo so we stopped off at the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway station to use the facilities and stayed a while!
We are avid sea shell picker uppers, and I'm going to star taking pix of them now that I have a decent lens. Lighting is harder than I thought!

You would think there were plenty of photos to take on a beach, without having to manufacture them :))
For #82 "Shell" of 100 Pictures in 2014 Scavenger Hunt.
I found a lot of shells with starfish holes on them - brought a bunch home and made a simple wind chime. Most likely it will tangle, but that is okay - I will just have to try to untangle it.

Shell Keeley Shoot…
I photographed the FABULOUS Shell Keeley recently. We met up and had tea at the Rococo Coffee House, in Liverpool. It was the first time I had met Shell, but we had been in touch via msgs on Facebook and such, so it didn’t really feel like our first meeting. I had wanted to photograph her because she simply looks divine, in her genuine vintage clothes PLUS she is the sweetest lady. So here we are, sat by the window in this rococo styled coffee shop, having a good old chin-wag, topics ranging from Vincent Price to Bette Davis, it wasn’t long before our cups were empty. So I set up my lights & we shot away.
We then packed up, Shell made a quick out-fit change (1930’s German red dress), and we were gone.
NEXT UP…
OUT DOOR SHOTS
We had a little wander about, taking pictures with just natural daylight. Stunning results with backlighting from the sun. Shell has the BEST eyes, so I took lots of close-up shots with an aperture of F/1.7 at 100 ISO, with my Pentax manual focus lens.
Really happy with the results, and you wouldn’t believe it was Shell’s first ever photo session. Beautiful pictures of a beautiful person, with the most impeccable manners. A true lady.

While this station appears as if it has always been at the Gilmore Car Museum, it is actually an accurate re-creation of an early 1930's Shell Station, complete with all the tools of full service garage from the period. Inside, you will find a vast display of Shell memorabilia, gas pump globes, a 1950 Ford Shell pickup, as well as clean restrooms. Constructed on site in 1998 with the help of many volunteers, the station serves as the Museum’s Interpretive Center and central gathering place for tours. Utilizing original 1929 blueprints in the design and the placement of the vintage Shell gas pumps and signage add to the sense of authenticity.
The porcelain signs that adorn the building hold special significance to the Museum. They were originally part of Hickory Corners’ own Shell Station, which was once located only three miles down the road from the Museum.
Actor Lucy Lawless joins Greenpeace New Zealand activists in stopping a Shell-contracted drillship from departing the port of Taranaki for the remote Arctic, where its exploratory oil drilling programme threatens to devastate the Alaskan coastline. Six Greenpeace New Zealand activists, along with Lawless, famous for her roles in Xena: Warrior Princess and Spartacus, have boarded the vessel, scaled its 53 metre drilling derrick and are hanging banners from its summit, reading ìStop Shellî and ì#SaveTheArctic.î They are equipped with survival gear and enough supplies to last for several days.
