Shells and sandstone on Hilbre Island. Hilbre Island is the largest of a group of three islands at the mouth of the estuary of the River Dee, the border between England and Wales at this point.

Macro Monday
Theme: Four
Size: Less than 3x3 inches
The subjects are 4 sea shells. I placed the 3 small round spiral sea shells on a bigger flat seashell.
Only one natural light source from 4 o'clock.
Focus is on the spiral tip of the smallest round sea shell ( 1cm diameter )
Many thanks for your visit, comments and faves...it is always appreciated..
Peaceful MM
This is my Camino shell from my travel in Spain in 2015. The Scallop Shell is used as a symbol of direction along the Camino, pointing pilgrims towards Santiago. Pilgrims also wear this symbol themselves which further enhances the camaraderie along this great walking trail. My Camino story in my book On foot in France (my 2019 Camino on the Puy-en-Velay route towards Spain is available on Amazon).
Il s'agit de ma coquille Camino provenant de mon voyage en Espagne en 2015. La coquille Saint-Jacques est utilisée comme un symbole de direction le long du Camino, indiquant aux pèlerins la direction de Saint-Jacques. Les pèlerins portent également ce symbole eux-mêmes, ce qui renforce encore la camaraderie le long de ce grand chemin de randonnée. Mon histoire de Camino dans mon livre en anglais On Foot In France (mon Camino 2019 sur le chemin du Puy-en-Velay vers l'Espagne est disponible sur Amazon).
Thankyou dear friends for all your support, comments and faves.

Siamo come conchiglie, belli e duri fuori, ma la parte più fragile e vera sta ben nascosta dentro di noi.
We are like shells, beautiful and hard outside, but the most frail and true is well hidden within us.
Macro Mondays theme: Rows
Here we have a real close-up of a shell showing the rows of ridges of a shell.
Captured at f22 not an f-stop I tend to use much as the image can appear soft but managed to get it right here, more by luck than judgement I would say.
I have quite a collection of shells as I cant' resist picking up those that catch my eye. I mainly use them to decorate planters - HSoS!
Thanks to skeletalmess for the texture!
Two shells which I collected from a beach many years ago.
'Two' for 'Macro Mondays'
Thank you for your views, faves and comments.
Happy MM
