I wanted to put something with the shells, but couldn't think what. Then I remembered that these 2 buttons are made from shell. One is oyster pearl and the other smokey pearl. They're both over 100 years old and date from the 1890s/1900s. Buttons to the rescue again. :)

I had mulch for the garden delivered and found it was full of these tiny little shells. Great for the calcium content in the soil, and wonderful for some macro photos.

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.

An occasional treat is to buy 'coquille st jacques' from M&S. And I simply can't throw the scallop shells away! So I have a pile of them just waiting to be photographed. Each one is subtly different, but mainly they are a pale grey with darker grey markings ... so I thought this was their moment to shine ;o)
I placed them on a sheet of pebble glass, and lit them from below with a warm LED light.
HTT!! too ;o)

I spotted this shell our 'Elephant's Ears' succulent plant on Sunday. I have not seen one like it in our garden before.
Whilst having a little rest against a the defences on Hayling Island, notes the shell just sitting there whilst I was relaxing listening to the waves breaking into the shore.
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!
Second photo in the mini series from the Shell-Haus building in Berlin.

As seen at Wirral Transport Museum. This immediately took me back to my Rochdale childhood on the mid 1960's because I recall petrol pumps like this where my old Dad always bought his petrol for our Morris Traveller. I think the garage was in Water Street but I could be wrong. He worked just around the corner from there in Drake Street managing the Town's Thomas Cook travel agency. I used to love watching the dials go around on the old pumps.
