The flint Shell House at Bicton Park contains an international collection of seashells from around the world. The area is accessed by a maze of footpaths weaving their way through the ferns. Exotic tree-ferns now grace an almost primeval rocky glade, created at the start of the Victorian 'fern fever' era.

 

Bicton Park Botanical Gardens is a tourist attraction on the southern part of the former Bicton estate. The landscaped park includes historic glasshouses, a countryside museum, the Bicton Woodland Railway train ride, nature trail, maze, mini golf, indoor and outdoor children's play complexes, restaurant and shop. The gardens, which originated in c.1730 are Grade I listed.

 

The four glasshouses at Bicton Gardens were designed to re-create the natural environment of plants from different continents. The Palm House was built in the 1820s to a curvilinear design, using 18,000 small glass panes in thin iron glazing bars. The Tropical House is the home of the Bicton orchid (Lemboglossum bictoniense), named after the Park where it first bloomed in 1836. The Arid House features cacti and other succulents growing in a naturalistic desert landscape.

a few shells from a trip to the seaside.

7 Days of Shooting: Week #26 - More Than 10. Macro Monday

 

These tiny shells are about 1/2 inch in real life. :)

The drive from 58 to shell creek road was filled with photographers :) It was great to see everyone out enjoying the scenery, there are actually like 5-6 people in this shot...amazing fields of Tidy tips and Baby blue eyes :)

Shell Creek winds it way out of the Western side of the Bighorn Mountains, along the Bighorn Scenic Byway. Exposed rock in this area was formed 330-360 million years ago and exposed during the Laramide Orogeny ~70 million years ago (the Bighorns were pushed up and into existence during this time.)

 

The steep walls of Shell Canyon rise straight up on either side of the creek and road.

 

Jump in the creek?

 

More information on the Bighorns and Shell Creek from Wikipedia.

The shell sign has received a facelift and what a clear day to get a shot of it. Pretty bold colors right out of the camera!

The Saturdays of 2011 - 20/53

 

I put my last pack of Time Zero film into my SX-70, but it was ooooold: smelly film pack, frames stuck to each other, battery struggling. So I popped it out, but the mirror was stuck. The best cure for a stuck mirror is to put in a working pack, so I went for som Fade To Black I've still got. I think the stuck mirror was confused as it didn't spit the darkslide out immediately.

 

No bother - tripod mount, close-up attachment, shell; click. Nothing. Click again, and out it comes, but clearly the film had been hooked forward a little before exposure, hence the dark patch at the bottom, and the framing much higher than it was in the viewfinder. Oh, and I accidentally nudged the exposure wheel towards dark. I don't mind though: I like this underwater shell...

 

Scanned within 5 minutes of taking.

Shells in their natural environment

 

2 strobes behind the water tank pointing at a reflective white background

...the shells she sells,

are surely seashells.

So if she sells shells

on the seashore,

I'm sure she sells

Seashore shells!.

 

sometimes strange idea comes in your head...

I found this shell on shore of one lake in Russia. I still don't know, why I took it, but today I decided: I want such a macroshot - with a lot of senseless information symbols. As our World.

Not inspired to photograph much at the moment so rooted out this one.
