I confess I did bring home just a couple of shells - these are so tiny (the yellow one is about the size of my little finger nail) that they would have been lost in one of my usual beach shots, so I brought them home to capture. Markings are so pretty.
I *may* have also found an abalone (my first whole one ever!)
Love these, but can't remember where I picked them up. These days I tend to just take photos and leave the shells on the beach
Dr. Phil Nudelman and his wife, Sandra, recently donated a one-of-a-kind collection of more than 100,000 shells to the Burke Museum. It's not only incredibly beautiful but also holds great research value. Read more on our blog: bit.ly/12YJQeS
Looking down on the tip of a pearlescent conical seashell. It is so perfect in its pearly spiral.

A small coloured pencil drawing testing colours and papers for a larger picture. This one is done on gesso with a little texture where the water is but I decided I prefer a smooth surface.
The inside of each Abalone Shell, away from where it attaches to the shell, is polished by the mollusc itself as it moves.

This was a former White Rose station. Shell acquired White Rose in Canada in the 1960s but this building hung on to its roses until the whole lot was rebuilt and replaced by a new Shell Select outlet.

Over the past million years, Shell Creek has incised a deep chasm through the sedimentary stone and ancient granite. The water of Shell Falls, dropping at a rate of 3,600 gallons per second, follows fractures in the resistant granite. Shell Canyon is named for the shell fossils found in the sedimentary canyon walls.
Shell Falls Interpretive Site is located on U.S. Highway 14, 21 miles southwest of Burgess Junction, Wyoming. The site is open 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week, Memorial Day through mid-Setpember.

Another one from St. Mary's Island. Few meters away from the main island is this wonderful beach full of sea shells. With crystal clear water and the colorful shells everywhere, it was worth a shot. Not up to the mark but there is always a next time :-)
This was the results of me playing with a 60mm Macro EF-S. It's kinda hard to maintain control of your focal point when these little critters start moving around!

While waiting for some peeps to show up, I was bored and shot this. One of many empty snail shells left on the shore - food source for the many migrating shorebirds.
