Several Decades ago, 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.

A recent family half term holiday in Whitby, birthplace to none other than Count Dracula and host for the annual Goth weekend, would perhaps seem an unlikely inspiration to paint a shell in the sand with some stones!
With all the tradition mixed with fancy dress that goes on in this bustling seaside town at this time of year it's definitely the place to be...although good luck finding a spot in a restaurant!
Anyway, back to the stones! So, having started painting again in September for the first time in 30 years, this holiday my camera and I had a slightly different agenda to normal.
Gone were the endless family point and clicks and in were the walks along the beach, camera facing downwards at stones, rock pools, shells and the like!
The obvious downside to that?...In 10 years time we won't be able to use my holiday snaps to help us remember the fun we had in our Whitby week!
Shell Australia owned NTAF 6057N sits adjacent to the platform on the down main at Cootamundra Station. This tanker forms part of the loading of 1327 Bomen Oil train. The Shell owned NTAF wagons come off the train at Cootamundra, and are used to convey fuel to the fuel point here. Empty NTAF tank wagons are shunted back on to the northbound 3128 service.

The Shell Grotto is an ornate subterranean passageway in Margate, Kent. Almost all the surface area of the walls and roof is covered in mosaics created entirely of seashells, totalling about 2,000 square feet (190 m2) of mosaic, or 4.6 million shells. It was discovered in 1835 but its age remains unknown. The grotto is a Grade I listed building and is open to the public.

Some of my shell collection, arranged roughly by type and size on my rug. Reminds me a bit of Ernst Haeckel for some reason.
one in a photo study of some of the more interesting shells I've found over the years -- from beaches on the outer Cape or Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, or Cape May, New Jersey.

I shot this from different viewpoints and angles. I'll post more shots from this series later.
Recent stormy weather pushed a huge number of razor shells onto this beach, where they joined the shell of an old shipwreck.

The Shell Collection, which is specially designed for FueraDentro by the dutch designer Jan des Bouvrie, consists of two chairs, a bank sofa, four tables and a sunbed.
