For the Macro Mondays challenge "Spiral"

The Shell sbout 2CM big

Shell Beach is just North of PIsmo Beach. We had just eaten at a restaurant near here and the waitress recommended this location to shoot a sunset. I'm glad I asked her before searching for a location. I loved the rock features in the water and this bluff had a perfect line for the glowing light off of the water.

 

I was sharing this location with another photographer and his wife asked us if we had looked below us. We both were in the moment and were trying to get the perfect light and weren't paying attention to much else. She had been below us on the beach and made a comment about how precarious the bluff looked that we were shooting from. I'm glad that it held us up because it would have been about a 75 foot drop to the beach below. It just reminds me of the crazy things we do to get the perfect shot.

Early morning shelling on Sanibel Island.

my mom called when I took this photo.

 

mom: what are you doing?

me: taking pictures.

mom: of what?

me: egg shells.

mom: what?

me: egg shells.

mom: nevermind.

  

A limpet shell, with a blue centre and ringed by brown flecks, reflected in a mirror.

Each shell a jewel, each grain a star,

Reflects the fading light afar,

The castle, proud, beneath the sky,

Wears sunset like a royal dye.

Juglans nigra, the eastern American black walnut, is a species of deciduous tree in the walnut family, Juglandaceae, native to North America. It grows mostly in riparian zones, from southern Ontario, west to southeast South Dakota, south to Georgia, northern Florida and southwest to central Texas

 

Black walnut is an important tree commercially, as the wood is a deep brown color and easily worked. Walnut seeds (nuts) are cultivated for their distinctive and desirable taste. Walnut trees are grown both for lumber and food, and many cultivars have been developed for improved quality wood or nuts.

A "shell beach" is a sea beach that routinely has an unusually large accumulation of seashells washed up on it. Seashells are most often the dead empty shells of marine mollusks, but may also include tests or shells of other kinds of marine animals.

A geeky computer joke. This shell is nature's way of exploring cellular automata :).

 

A cellular automaton is a mathematical technique that evolves a collection of data using very simple rules. This shell exhibits that sort of evolution along its outer surface.

 

In the computer world, a shell is a program that accepts a persons inputs (usually by typing commands) and then spits out the results.

  

One of our stops was Beaumaris. There were lots of shells and no people. A quiet coastal haven.

Just another shell on my suitably themed kitchen table cloth that has seagulls printed on it :) taking using a vintage macro lens not too long ago. The lens mounts naturally needing no adaptor and is the Nikon Nikkor 55mm 2.8 Micro lens.. This one is taken at f/11 and still threw the background out but of course doesn't have the detail that photo stacking would achieve. We hope to go away just possibly 2 days and visit the beach where I collect my shells from just a short walk from our caravan. Jonathan says I have enough shells now but if i pick one up and marvel at its intricacies I simply can't leave it behind. There are many millions every single time we go and i started an entirely new collection that are of most variety of shell but all different shades of blue...I hope to catch up with some of your inspirational shots hopefully if there is any WIFI and maybe a few once I'm ready before we set off. Jonathan has been alone to his bungalow every day and its too much so I'm dragging him away. Wishing you all a lovely day...Sue :)

Ps the bits on the tablecloth are tiny crumbs of sand despite my best efforts at washing this shell clean.

Tiny shell on my finger :)

 

Macro Mondays - theme: "Tiny"

A random assortment of shells I have collected over the years.

The 10/2 Macro Mondays theme is Shell.

Three shells in the sand of the St. George Island State Park beach.

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

  

woah this is my first HBW in like,

5209562809 years?

  

i like how my pictures have nothing in common anymore.

i don't know if that is good or bad?

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).

Simple but effective, caught in a furrow on Abersoch beach made from the retrieving sea, this shell highlighted by the late evening sunshine created an interesting shot which for me was emotional given it was on the last evening of our holiday. The black and white conversion helps with the mood of the image.

No, it's not an owl!!

 

But I can see why you might think that.

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.

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.
