I found a lot of shells with starfish holes on them - brought a bunch home and made a simple wind chime. Most likely it will tangle, but that is okay - I will just have to try to untangle it.

Shell Keeley Shoot…
I photographed the FABULOUS Shell Keeley recently. We met up and had tea at the Rococo Coffee House, in Liverpool. It was the first time I had met Shell, but we had been in touch via msgs on Facebook and such, so it didn’t really feel like our first meeting. I had wanted to photograph her because she simply looks divine, in her genuine vintage clothes PLUS she is the sweetest lady. So here we are, sat by the window in this rococo styled coffee shop, having a good old chin-wag, topics ranging from Vincent Price to Bette Davis, it wasn’t long before our cups were empty. So I set up my lights & we shot away.
We then packed up, Shell made a quick out-fit change (1930’s German red dress), and we were gone.
NEXT UP…
OUT DOOR SHOTS
We had a little wander about, taking pictures with just natural daylight. Stunning results with backlighting from the sun. Shell has the BEST eyes, so I took lots of close-up shots with an aperture of F/1.7 at 100 ISO, with my Pentax manual focus lens.
Really happy with the results, and you wouldn’t believe it was Shell’s first ever photo session. Beautiful pictures of a beautiful person, with the most impeccable manners. A true lady.

Actor Lucy Lawless joins Greenpeace New Zealand activists in stopping a Shell-contracted drillship from departing the port of Taranaki for the remote Arctic, where its exploratory oil drilling programme threatens to devastate the Alaskan coastline. Six Greenpeace New Zealand activists, along with Lawless, famous for her roles in Xena: Warrior Princess and Spartacus, have boarded the vessel, scaled its 53 metre drilling derrick and are hanging banners from its summit, reading ìStop Shellî and ì#SaveTheArctic.î They are equipped with survival gear and enough supplies to last for several days.
Shells, peas... I couldn't resist.

I had not managed to take a Project 365 photograph during the day. I found these shells at home in the evening and decided to see if I could make a photograph out of them.

One of the "shell trees" on Wild Beach at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge / Assateague Island National Seashore. Visitors like to decorate the remnants of trees, once in the marsh but now overtaken by the beach as it shifts.

This was the original kitchen at Shell Castle. It was larger than most houses at that time. Originaly there was a large chimney at each end. During the 1850's Dr, Whitakers sister, West Whitaker ran a girls school on the second floor of this building. This important building which was on the National Register of Historic Places was demolished.
