People look for shells in front of Neuwerk.

Just another shell on my suitably themed kitchen table cloth that has seagulls printed on it :) taking using a vintage macro lens not too long ago. The lens mounts naturally needing no adaptor and is the Nikon Nikkor 55mm 2.8 Micro lens.. This one is taken at f/11 and still threw the background out but of course doesn't have the detail that photo stacking would achieve. We hope to go away just possibly 2 days and visit the beach where I collect my shells from just a short walk from our caravan. Jonathan says I have enough shells now but if i pick one up and marvel at its intricacies I simply can't leave it behind. There are many millions every single time we go and i started an entirely new collection that are of most variety of shell but all different shades of blue...I hope to catch up with some of your inspirational shots hopefully if there is any WIFI and maybe a few once I'm ready before we set off. Jonathan has been alone to his bungalow every day and its too much so I'm dragging him away. Wishing you all a lovely day...Sue :)

Ps the bits on the tablecloth are tiny crumbs of sand despite my best efforts at washing this shell clean.

I just can’t get over the Shell Haus. The façade is little worn-out, but shapes are so mesmerizing. Overall, it takes me home to Nordic with its design.

The spiral staircase in the Passion Tower of the Sagrada Família, Barcelona Spain.

 

The staircase is notable for its unique, organic form that mimics natural snail-shell shapes, and its symbolic meaning.

 

The narrow and dramatic descent staircase appears to spiral infinitely downward when viewed from above. Its central void creates an optical illusion of depth and a dizzying visual effect.

 

♥ Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments ♥

One of my attempts at the "Macro Mondays" theme "Shell".

  

Shot with a Noritsu "60-90 mm F 4.5-5.6" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.

 

Random shell that's in the garden given a high contrast black and white look.

HMM. Both the shell and me are in need of vitamin “sea”

Macro Mondays - Natural Shells

Three shells in the sand of the St. George Island State Park beach.

Snail homes to let

from bottom up: rock, lichens, razor shells, barnacles ...

The animal inside this shell had died but it had created a beautiful subject for me to shoot.

Shell Falls in Bighorn National Forest, Wyoming plunges for 120 feet above PreCambrian Granite. During the summer, water drops over Shell Falls at a rate of 3,600 gallons per second. The Creek and Falls follows fractures in the resistant granite. The creek and canyon were named for the shell fossils found in the sedimentary canyon walls above the granite.

i wanted to include in this description a shot of her from 5 years ago, taken on the same lake in winter. flickr doesn't give a way to do that unless the image has been on flickr, so no image. the contrast is huge. teenageness abucts our children and sends them to a faraway planet. forever. but the chrysalis left behind holds something worth waiting for.

These shelled animals were probably deposited on high ground during one of our floods. The high water probably receded quickly and these were left behind.

Simple but effective, caught in a furrow on Abersoch beach made from the retrieving sea, this shell highlighted by the late evening sunshine created an interesting shot which for me was emotional given it was on the last evening of our holiday. The black and white conversion helps with the mood of the image.

The Shell House is a classical modernist architectural masterpiece that stands overlooking the Landwehrkanal in the Tiergarten district of Berlin, Germany. It was designed by Emil Fahrenkamp and was built in 1930–31. In retrospect it is regarded as Fahrenkamp’s masterpiece and one of the most significant office block designs of the Weimar Republic (see Wikipedia).

Another shot I took when trying to get something for last weeks Macro Mondays high-key theme.

 

All found and carefully collected by me from New Zealand beaches.

Smile on Saturday - Shells

Came across this hinged mussel shell when walking the dog in Gunners Park, not far from East Beach, Shoeburyness. Picked it up and popped in on a pyracantha bush nearby !!

In most marine mussels the shell is longer than it is wide, being wedge-shaped or asymmetrical. The external colour of the shell is often dark blue, blackish, or brown, while the interior is silvery and somewhat nacreous

(Nacre also known as mother of pearl, is an organic–inorganic composite material produced by some molluscs (like mussels) as an inner shell layer; it is also the material of which pearls are composed. It is strong, resilient, and iridescent)
