Loved the way the light caught it's, err, "eyes."

 

These things always amaze me. He just climbed up this thistle, latched on, molted and he was off.

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!

A pile of shells next to the dock at the harbor.

The left shell is fresh and I brought it home from a Japanese meal in Kyoto. It is called Abalone or Awabi (Japanese) and is pearl inside with a row of (at least 9) perforations. It is rather light in weight. The right shell is pertrified and very old, I found it at a beach in France. I have no idea what exactly it is, but it could be an oyster type of shell. It is the perfect intermediate between a shell and a stone and rather heavy. The photo gives a reliable impression of the two very different textures of these shells.

DJZ_6588-Edit-2: Shell Canyon is on the western side of the Bighorn Mountains. In this image, you see Hwy US14 going down. I'm on my way down the canyon heading toward the section of US14 that's between Wapiti, and the eastern entrance of Yellowstone NP.

The morning sunlight is just beginning to hit the upper part of this image.

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.

Shell Beach is the closest stretch of sand to downtown Gustavia on St. Barthélemy, Eastern Caribbean.

Along route 14, in Wyoming, Shell Falls displays its beautifully time worn rocks and massive water volume.

With the weather threat of 20 Cm of snow for Dec 4/15 this may possibly be the last view of the sand and shells till spring, hopefully not.

Low tide today was at 12.59pm, so I took myself down to the beach for a wander. I spent nearly an hour and half there and it only rained once for a few minutes, but otherwise it was glorious.

Some shells on the shore at the Niarbyl.

posed beautifully - though not in the easiest place to photograph! could this be a Yellow Shell? thanks to the mothfather for confirmation of ID.

 

the same shell pictured here, but this time on a leaf

"Take the memories with you....

but leave the stones & shells here!"

 

...the tour guide said.

Long Reef, on Sydney's Northern Beaches, is a great place to find shells.
