Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!

Long Beach, NSW, Australia

This bowl of shells sits on my dining room table. This morning the sun was shining in on them and it put a smile on my face!

Have a great weekend!

That's my reflection in the shell. I've never seen a bug like this with such a shiny shell. I don't think this is a ladybug it's too brown.

From the 1980s? Lurking amongst other odds and ends at some barns I recently surveyed.

Sally sells sea shells down by the sea shore ... and I can not wait to get to the beach again! Why must vacation only come but once a year? I swear that one day I will at least have a winter home by the beach to escape from the mountain cold.

Elliptical ridge curves define the shell form.

Front Street, Issaquah, Washington. The city has restored the original Shell Station and transformed it into the visitor's bureau. It's what greets a visitor coming into Issaquah on the main street, Front Street.

Much of downtown Issaquah looks like an early to mid 20th century western mining town. There's a saloon like feel to some of the buildings.

I live a couple blocks from here.

Love how these 2 shells appear to be an echo of each other: brown on white/white on brown - and what an intricate piece of coral

I was asked back the the Long Beach Aquarium of the Pacific for another of their Photo Nights.

In addition to presenting the "Getting Started" show, I was asked to do a Hands-on CLS class.

I thought it would be fun to have a couple of the flash stations be themed more towards the Aquarium.

This is a redo of the "Spilled Sweetness" set-up we use in the regular CLS Workshop. www.flickr.com/photos/pva1964/4018577793/in/set-721576232...

I used the black shelf liner to highlight the shells without throwing any color cast.

Piles and piles of Atlantic slippersnail shells (Crepidula fornicata) . The slipper snail or its shell is also referred to as a boat shell, quarterdeck shell, fornicating slipper snail, Atlantic slipper limpet or common slipper limpet. I have never seen so many in one place as on this beach at Tod,s Point in Greenwich, Connecticut - USA

These lovely seashells on the beach at Grótta, Seltjarnarnes. Of all sizes and colors. I took a few and played with them.
