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)

Just some sea shells....

There was an area of this field that had a lot of these little snails wandering the grasses...

Je suis tombé pour nager

et j'ai laissé mon coeur en arrière

J'ai laissé mon coeur vers le bas

comme la coquille dans le sable

I fell to swim

and I left my heart back

I left my heart down

like the shell in the sand

I could point the camera down most of my time on a beach.

So my old macro lense (Tamron 90mm) died a death, due to fungus :\ Had to replace it, like for like, and I remember why I liked this lense so much in the first place. Slapped a Raynox 250 on it and got this macro of some very small shells. The focus is *ever so slightly* off, but it's good enough.

This photo was created for the theme "Attention To Details" in The Flickr Lounge .

Who else gives the best and most attention to detail... Nature..

Photo taken at Randfontein in South Africa.

Using the (kit lens) Nikon Nikkor AF-P 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 G VR DX lens.

I Shoot Raw and edit in GIMP.

Critique is welcomed.

Thank you all very much for your visits, favs and comments.

The soft pink colour of this shell was enhanced by bouncing a bit of light back in with a pink post it note just out of frame top left. The bleaching was a simple one click effect using Smart Photo Editor.

This is an old sea shell that I brought back from Baja California, Mexico years ago.

Lighting stuff: Side lighting from a Yongnuo manual flashes in soft boxes on either side of the shell. The strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are over 1900 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
