This is the first in my new series of images from the German North Sea island Sylt. When I was there last summer, I was constantly taking photos, even when I was relaxing on the beach.
I am still in holiday mode, so I don't comment as much as I usually do. Please bear with me. Things will go back to normal next week.
Enjoy!
I love the colours of these mussel shells - if they weren't occupied I would have liked to re-home them to my place.
Taken in Otago, South Island, NZ

When I see a bunch of shells on the beach, I want to hoard them like a pirate. At some point in history, these were money.
This photo is reprocessed from an earlier version here. (justenoughfocus.smugmug.com/Portfolio/Full/i-MVVZNj3) The tools for post-processing are continually being updated, so lately I've been having a little fun going back to old photos to tease out a new look. I don't recall what tools I used back in 2015, but this time, I used the latest version of Skylum's Luminar.
Nevertheless, what got my attention in this scene is all of the shells in the foreground; they must have been deposited after a storm. You can go to a store and buy a bag of shells for ten bucks, or you could just go to the beach and pick them up yourself. Better yet, send me the money, and I'll get them for you! (just kidding)

Summer earrings made from natural shells. It's a pity but when I went on vacations to the seaside I had forgotten it at home )
A submission to Macro Monays on the topic "Collection". I am currently travelling, so all our collections are at home. But here is a very temporary collection of shells found on a beach on Queensland's Sunshine Coast.
One of the unexpected delights of the Boneyard Beach at Botany Bay Plantation on Edisto Island in South Carolina... was how people dealt with the "no shelling" rule. Our first reaction to hearing that an isolated beach would not allow you to take any shells was minor sadness, but then we saw that so many of the trees and exposed roots were coated in beautiful shells. It was almost like the shells were ornaments decorating the trees of a tropical island. Sarah found and hung several shells of her own while we were there.
The average conch shell was about 6 inches long and we saw hundreds upon hundreds of them. Take a close look at the tilted little palm tree in the foreground of this picture and you will see what I mean!
