Taken for Week 20/52 Weeks for Pix: Theme is 3. 3 shells from Florida Bay in Key Largo. When alive, these shells are sea snails, who live in the sea grass in Florida Bay. When I swim in the bay, I find these shells, with the snails dead. Sometimes they are inhabited by hermit crabs, who have taken over the shells. Then I put them back in the water, so that the hermit crabs live. There are usually many live sea snails- and occasionally I find these shells from the ones who have died. Much fear for what is to come of this ecosystem with the oil spill. I photograph what I love. What I love is endangered and terribly threatened right now.
Part of my 100 possibliities project, taking 100 photos of the center shell. Maybe survival is also a possiblility.
Sunset in Miami, along Biscayne Bay. Taken on my walk after work. This whole area is threatened by the oil spill. IT is still clear and beautiful- please come visit. But the oil spill effects are already in the loop current, and who knows what will be brought our way in Florida. The toxic effects of the oil spill would certainly kill all of the snails who are mostly alive who inhabit these shells. They might never recover from such a devastating hit. Let us hope that the oil spill miraculously does not affect us here in Florida.
Scientists have had many ideas how to mop up and clean the oil. Why has it taken so long to begin to act on their recommendations?

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.

My wife bought this kitschy shell lamp and I've reluctantly grown to like it. Don't tell her.

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.
