Shells on granite, Camps Bay, South Africa

My old camera got flicked :-(((.

For the past one month i was uploading stored photos. This is the second shot taken with the new camera. I am yet to get used to it and being technically-challenged ( as my daughters would agree :-))) ), it takes me quite some time to get adjusted to any new technical piece.

Pl. view large to see the patterns created by nature !!

These are tiny little shells ( .70 cm approx. ) strung together.

Visited in April 1992. (also in July 1993)

This is scanned from the original slide.

Billions of tiny white 'coquina bivalve' sea shells form Shell Beach. The coquina bivalve shellfish has no predator in this locality due to the very high salinity in this bay which predators have been unable to adapt to. The shell fish have existed in huge numbers for thousands of years, then died natural deaths then been washed ashore. Shell Beach is covered for a 60km-long stretch to a depth of some seven to ten metres. Shell Beach is one of only two shell beaches like it in the world.

Shells

I collect seashells. They remind me of the ocean, which I find very peaceful.

Shell Falls and visitor center are on highway 14 on the western slope of the Bighorn Mountains in northeast Wyoming. I used a split ND filter vertically to even out the exposure range to bring out detail in the shadows. It wasn't quite enough.

This shell was found off the beach near Applecross in Scotland. I was quite surprised to find it, but not half as suprised to how cold the water was.

i always bring back at least one shell with me, as a momento, every single time i visit the beach, no matter what beach. these shells are from when i went to the beach in coco cay last month.

The Shell Project - Originally started as an exercise to test some of the features of my new Casio point and shoot camera but turned into an extended study of a single abalone shell. The series shows the results of photographing that shell at different focusing modes and lighting conditions.
