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.

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.
No one wants to have this said about them. This was taken last fall on Popham Beach in Phippsburg, Maine.
The Shell House is a classical modernist architectural masterwork that stands overlooking the Landwehrkanal in the Tiergarten district of Berlin. It opened in 1932 and was designed by German architect Emil Fahrenkamp. At the time the building was noted for its striking wave-like façade, and for being one of the first steel-framed high-rise buildings in Berlin.
In the morning before seminar which I had to give presentation of the Project I carry out, insteading of preparing I walked around to relax and meditate my mind before time.
It was still silent as I came quite early. There is lotus pond in front of the hall, no lotus blooming just only green leaves. Just something on the move on one leaf so I looked closer and saw this bug floating in the little pond on the lotus leaf . After I realised that this bug could not swim so I gave little help by finding little stick to pull the bug out of this liitle pond.
I felt fulfilled with this little thing I had done and had seen.. the liitle pond was just like crystal shell... and some new little world I explored like "Alice in the Wonder Land" and I had saved this little friend.
