It is perhaps unsurprising that Brian would have a keen interest in shells - he has been collecting them for years from his many overseas expeditions in Malaysia, Australia and Papua New Guinea to name just a few. He loves admiring the grace and elegance in the amazing diversity of their colours and forms. This image shows him posing with four of his smallest shells - two cowries, an olive shell and a common cockle.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Collection'. Brian is a tiny juvenile snail, with a shell barely 7mm long, so the image spans about 7.2cm.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
I just can’t get over the Shell Haus. The façade is little worn-out, but shapes are so mesmerizing. Overall, it takes me home to Nordic with its design.

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.

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 my attempts at the "Macro Mondays" theme "Shell".

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 don't know if that is good or bad?

A part of our collection of sea shells gathered over the years from various beaches around the world!

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).

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.
....... a tiny shell lay camouflaged on the remains of the bark of a tree trunk, washed up on the beach ......
i wanted to include in this description a shot of her from 5 years ago, taken on the same lake in winter. flickr doesn't give a way to do that unless the image has been on flickr, so no image. the contrast is huge. teenageness abucts our children and sends them to a faraway planet. forever. but the chrysalis left behind holds something worth waiting for.
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!
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.
IANR BUWA rolls through Shell Rock, Iowa on the start of its trip down to Waterloo with the F40/Slug duo. Only time will tell how much longer these units will stick around under new ownership.

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, (*_*)

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)
