Sea Shell, is a hard, protective outer layer created by an animal that lives in the sea. The shell is part of the body of the animal. Empty seashells are often found washed up on beaches by beachcombers. The shells are empty because the animal has died and the soft parts have been eaten by another animal or have decomposed.I found these on Llandudno Pier.

The Macro Mondays theme for 10/2 is shell(s). This is one possibility. In my photostream is a context shot of the tiny orange one on a dime.
I was starting to forget how to actually take pictures that don't directly relate to my dreary life so thought I'd be a swot today to make up for my reckless weekend.
The shells sales boy. He is Honduran and he is from a community called Garifunas, they live in the North of Honduras and are part of our history and culture they are always smiley and friendly. Most of our players in our National Football team are from this group of people, they are very strong and fast, most of them speak Spanish, English and their dialect, I am so proud of my culture here. Thank you so much for the visit, greetings from this part of the world :)

Both these lei were brought back from Rapa Nui. The black shells in the far lei are Black Nerites, which certainly occur on Rapa Nui beaches, as do small cowries, but I suppose they could be from countless places in the Pacific.
