Shells and fragments of them make up this beach on Shell Key across the channel from Pass-A-Grille, Florida. Shell Key is a beautiful, natural, hotel and road free, barrier Island that is protected as a County Nature preserve.

Formed from billions of tiny shells, the aptly named Shell Beach is located in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.

I got destroyed by these waves a couple months back. I think this is why my 16-35 had to go in for a tune-up--a couple sets later I got knocked back and the gear took a bit of a crash. Walked home soaked. At least it was comedy for all the people watching the sunset at the end of my block in Pismo Beach, California.
Not too much on this: some Lightroom 3 and Color Efex Pro
Thanks for looking!

I've never seen so many Pelicans in the Peregrine Falcons' kitchen. Where did they all come from? Where are the Rock Pigeons? All gobbled up? And why are the Pelicans threatening the Oystercatchers? Anyone have any answers?

Got some nice light here in a secret small cove in the bosom of Shell Beach as the sun hung low over the pacific. The tide was rushing in and the movement around these broken rocks made for some designs at an exposure of just under a second. Hit "L" to view this on black with a border around it. :)

Shell Beach / Central Coast / Calif
A shot a couple years in the making. First took this compostion in 2009 when we had a negative tide. Those of you that have explored the beaches from Spyglass to the Palisades may know of its location. This is a five composite HDR shot @ f/ 16, with the old D40 from Nikon. Super excited about this one! :D
Shell Beach Inn, 653 Shell Beach Road, Shell Beach, California. This neon sign looks new, but who cares...what a great design!
Shell beach si trova nella World Heritage Area di Shark Bay (Western Australia) ed e' una delle due sole spiagge al mondo fatta INTERAMENTE da conchiglie... un po' scomoda per camminarci a piedi nudi ma... un posto magnifico
I had to work in our San Luis Obispo office for a few days, so I stayed through the weekend and took advantage of the beautiful scenery up there. This shot is from Pismo beach, just around the corner. They have some really nice rock formations and stacks along the coast. Not much for sky, but at least it wasn't fogged in!

I'm just adding a closeup shot of the shell beach at Coral Beach on Skye. Although there are shells from sea snails and other shellfish, most of the "shells" here are the bleached skeletons of coralline algae from the nearby reef. These wash up onto the beach and are broken and polished by the surf and by the strong winds that blow across Loch Dunvegan tumbling them smooth.
This beautiful beach is composed of shells, from fine grains of shell to complete shells, in the dunes at the back of the beach one can see clear layers showing the fine sand, then almost complete shells, looks stunning when its wet!

Felt like i was late to the party tonight to catch the light and color getting good. I missed the light but the lovely pinks never really made a presence. Thankfully i had some high thunderous tides to work with and knowing this small cove in Shell Beach pretty well i was able to position myself on these rocks where i knew the rushing water would go right by me leaving me mostly untouched. With the fast tides and unique cobbled rocks that lay strewn along the beach i got some nice designs showing the fluidity and presence of the water.

Thanks for looking!
A composite result of 15 shots using Photomatix HDr and CS5 layers to control depth of field. Three sets of five bracketed shots, each set of five with a different focal point. The 3 HDr renderings were then loaded into CS5 as layers using the auto align and then auto blend settings with hopefully resulting in good focus throughout the seascapes depth of field
Sean Foster www.flickr.com/photos/dacoach89/ surprised me yesterday driving through SLO area and I had to show him this beach. i can't wait to see what he comes up with but we went hard with the 10 Stop ND Filter.
If you've seen any of the recent stuff I've been doing it's no shock I've gotten pretty obsessed with long exposures and filters. I've never really thought about going HDR with them, so here's the first of a ton to come.

Juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron, Shell Beach, California. Even though I took this picture in June, there must have been at least one more crop of nestlings after that, since I went there yesterday (August 24) and found a couple of juveniles at approximately the same stage of development (but much more shy) hiding in the same trees, and making themselves very scarce whenever they saw me looking at them. I couldn't get any shots yesterday.
McLintocks Restaurant in Shell Beach, California. Massive amounts of food. A good way to get your evening started if you are planning on being out late shooting photos.
Shot 1 of 1,000,000 that won't be B&W
Ahhhh COLOR and HDRs are back in my life! Having such a new found respect for B&W photography still expect a ton from me, but it's a nice feeling to end such a fun month of learning with a sunset I've been sitting on for a long time. This is 5 long exposures meshed together into an HDR image.
--Look for a variation of this image in the 2012 Really Right Stuff catalog in our Long Exposure HDR Tutorial.
Thanks again for all the support during my B&W October Project..talk about fun going full force for a month on such a different photographic discipline. I truly appreciate all the comments and critiques--I feel I learned something new every day.

Inspired by Alice Cahill's image of sand trees, I searched for a similar pattern during a recent low tide at Shell Beach.
Natures patterns continue to amaze me.
Taken post sunset last week at Shell Beach CA. I did some ridiculously long exposures with the ND 110. This is my first attempt at layering with OnOne Perfect Layers and I'm very excited.
