Macro Mondays: #5letters
I haven't been here as much as I wanted to, nor have I taken pictures of the places I've been. I finally have a car again and as before; it will be easier to get to my favorite spots.
Thanks very much for your visit and comment! 💕
A mobile photo of some Hickory shells on a rock at Pine Lake State Park near Eldora, Iowa.
Developed with Darktable 3.6.0.
One of my attempts at the "Macro Mondays" theme "Shell".
Shot with a Noritsu "60-90 mm F 4.5-5.6" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.
I don't really collect anything so I thought if I do collect it will definitely be beach bits and bobs as we walk most days along our shores. I have noticed with the Nikon D60 camera my son gave me that it does not handle noise as well as my Canon 600D. It also does not have live view or a self timer. I am enjoying the 70-300mm lens though, saves me buying one!
these shells are everywhere .. i stepped on them by mistake .. and hurt myself :(
but ... sob7an allah they are so nice to watch at .. and great details :D
See the whisper of the wind has found your hair again
And though my heart said give me refuge in your dignity my dear
All I could do was put a seashell to your ear

A pair of SD40-2's head back to CN's Scotford Yard after lifting interchange traffic from CP. Shell Canada's Chemical plant and upgrader loom in the distance. If you look above the inflatable cow on the far left you will see a tan structure and stack, which is where I am employed. Not often do I get to combine work and play in a single shot.
The Shell House is a classical modernist architectural masterpiece that stands overlooking the Landwehrkanal in the Tiergarten district of Berlin, Germany. It was designed by Emil Fahrenkamp and was built in 1930–31. In retrospect it is regarded as Fahrenkamp’s masterpiece and one of the most significant office block designs of the Weimar Republic (see Wikipedia).
Shell Falls in Bighorn National Forest, Wyoming plunges for 120 feet above PreCambrian Granite. During the summer, water drops over Shell Falls at a rate of 3,600 gallons per second. The Creek and Falls follows fractures in the resistant granite. The creek and canyon were named for the shell fossils found in the sedimentary canyon walls above the granite.

This shell may itself be a ghost - it seems to be stalking something, doesn't it? For We're Here! who investigating ghosts in shells today and for my POTD.
Many thanks for all views and fav's - and particularly comments.
All are greatly appreciated!
Happy photography to you all!

SAME SHELLS.. TUTUFA
from the bottom now, are they small or are they big?
Tutufa is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Bursidae, the frog shells.
Photography can play games with our visual perception, LOL
A series of ‘nautical’ subjects. It can be anything, just seeing different scenes that attracted my attention.
Pure photography.
Thank you for your time and comments, greatly appreciated, M, (*_*)

For the Macro Mondays challenge "Patterns in Nature" ( July 15th 2019)
Seashells always amaze me. How can so many shells have the same design, patterning, colour and size! Maybe they are as diverse among the seashell world as we are - but to foreign eyes they all look the same ;o)
There's a shot of the seashell in the first comment field, along with the the size-guide I use for MM.
HMM to everyone, and have a great week ;o)

Smile on Saturday - Shells
Came across this hinged mussel shell when walking the dog in Gunners Park, not far from East Beach, Shoeburyness. Picked it up and popped in on a pyracantha bush nearby !!
In most marine mussels the shell is longer than it is wide, being wedge-shaped or asymmetrical. The external colour of the shell is often dark blue, blackish, or brown, while the interior is silvery and somewhat nacreous
(Nacre also known as mother of pearl, is an organic–inorganic composite material produced by some molluscs (like mussels) as an inner shell layer; it is also the material of which pearls are composed. It is strong, resilient, and iridescent)
Found these beautiful shells on vacation in South Carolina. They caught my eye during my oceanside sunrise. I was immediately drawn to the palette of colors.
HMM Everyone!

CSX Y32210 leaves the run around track by NW 12th Ave bound back to Hialeah Yard on the Downtown Spur. Formerly a two track mainline with dozens of industrial switches, all that's left is the single track stem to the run around since Y322 still works trailing points on both directions. The ex Seaboard Miami Station would have stood in the background had it not been demolished.
