A dip in to the Treasure Hunt for today's image. This open shell was beachcombed from Tasmania
Shell #61 for the Treasure Hunt
...the shells she sells,
are surely seashells.
So if she sells shells
on the seashore,
I'm sure she sells
Seashore shells!.
While we're on gas pumps, I happened to remember this old shot from a bike tour many years ago. Pre digital days, the photo was most likely taken with one of the small Olympus clam shell cameras.

Haven't been shell hunting in weeks, I never find a good shell through the summer, they are either picked up by children or mashed under foot and damaged. Today was a good shell day and a beautiful sunset at Calshot

Scavenger Challenge - June 2018 Assignment - “S nouns”
This is the model designed by request. Valentina Minaeva asked me if it's possible to make 5-sided shells with closed back. This was the nice problem to solve. This problem resulted these "shells". They're made of paper rectangles (around 1:2, this may vary) and can vary the proportions (5-sided one has more rules to follow and 4 sided can be varied easier). Valentina made the beautiful modular with 60 of pentagonal units

Do you have a good name for this model?
Our Daily Challenge ... in a row.
"7 Days of Shooting" "Week #20 - Blue" "Technique Tuesday" Technique used :- a filter with a heart shaped hole and shallow depth of field to produce heart shaped bokeh where the light is catching the shine on the beads.
© David K. Edwards. Not enough light. Thus too much aperture. Thus not enough depth of field. Thus not enough focus. Both of us? Milly's shell, anyhow.
