These 10 year olds were not put off by the idea of painting these shells without pencil first. They then used a line drawing on an acetate overlay to create an extra dimension.
I know, shells again :D This one was for the course I'm doing and I quite liked it. And yes, the shells came home with me!
This predatory mollusc climbs on top of barnacles and other invertebrates and slowly drills a hole in their shell. It then inserts a feeding tube and eats it's prey fresh from the shell "au naturale"

Shells, shells and more shells! I think it's a requirement if you live in Florida to have jars of shells all over your house.
It was just after Midnight. I was running errands, and had my camera with me. Drove by once, thought it looked neat. Came back around, parked, and snapped this one.

Went shooting with my girls this weekend at a friend's house in Fredericksburg (see this pic for the awesome sunrise view we had on Father's Day). Later that evening I remarked, "Wow, we shot a lot of clays today". I quickly corrected myself, however, amending my statement to "Well, we THREW a lot of clays today". We have fun regardless of how well we shoot on a given day. Lots of memories come out of these events.
I managed to shoot about 40 rounds out of the 12 gauge before I got tired of the kick then I switched to the 20 gauge (we had three 20s out there) and went through another 50-ish. The girls and friends went through their share as well and we ended up with quite a pile of spent shells, part of which you see in the pic above. We also shot plenty of rounds out of a 9mm Glock, a .22 Ruger pistol, and a couple .22 rifles.
The pic above was created by tonemapping three exposures, the darkest of which just helped bring down the metal reflections a bit. I blended in a bit here and there from the original exposures and parts from a layer processed with the "photo pop" preset in Topaz Adjust. Added a curves adjustment, a slight levels adjustment (brought in more blacks), and a bit of sharpening to all that and voila…there it is.
I am a lonely sea shell washed away into the sea, as the waves continue to rush up against me; I will no longer be. I was once a living organism who could fill smell and see, now I am just a fragment of what use to be. My life ended so suddenly without a sign of warning, now that remains are only traces of time that suddenly slipped away.

I'm a big fan of the work of Maggie Taylor. She creates her images by using a scanner more than a camera. I scanned this shell a few days ago and the background is the cloth I used to clean the glass. Perhaps when I have some time, I'll scan a few more bits and pieces and see what I can do with them.
Shell Centre, in London, is one of the two "central offices" of oil major Shell (the other is in The Hague). It comprises a skyscraper tower and three nine-storey wings (the "upstream building").
Shell Centre is located on the Belvedere Road in the London Borough of Lambeth. It is a prominent feature on the South Bank of the River Thames near County Hall, and now forms the backdrop to the London Eye. Shell Centre was constructed in 1961, to a design by Sir Howard Robertson, and the tower stands at 107 metres (351 ft) with 27 storeys (26 numbered and a mezzanine level) and extends three storeys below ground. The tower was the first London skyscraper to exceed the height of the Victoria Tower of the Palace of Westminster.
