Using a Reverse Mount Macro Adapter I turned my 17-85 lens around to capture a macro of the ribs of this shell.
Several Decades ago, the Oil Co Shell, put out a number of series of cards. They also sold albums to put these cards in. Everytime you went to Shell for petrol, or anything else, they gave you some cards. The idea was to collect the whole lot, and generally they were most obliging in allowing you to go through the box, to get the cards you were missing.
I only have the Transport Card series left, the others have been long thrown out.
I have scanned each page. This is part 1.

While on Holiday with the family in Shell Island we watched an amazing sunset... who needs photo editing when they're captured just like this!
Been fallin' in love with wide crops; especially the 16:9.
Since 1915 the Shell Martinez Refinery has been a constant progression of technical advancement. It is currently one of the most complex refineries in the world. Although it holds a title as major as that it is usually just something that most traveling through the the area on a daily basis just overlook.
An oceanic embodiment, this work of assemblage has a totemic, talismanic essence.
The shell "tile" is a substantial piece of clam shell found on the Jersey shore, as well as the shard of moon shell which forms the body. The face is polymer clay in a serene and striated form. There are freshwater pearl "fronds" which look like a flashing sea-crown. A dyed amethyst pearl is like a wing, and a white pearl is the jeweled center of this being.
A gold tone metal bail and chain, measuring about 19 inches complete the piece.
