This is my original shot for the Macro Mondays theme of spirals i.e. until my knowledgeable husband pointed out that strictly speaking, a shell like this is a helix ( same goes for snail shells)

I love shells, and sea life....so why not take a pic with a shell

The left shell is fresh and I brought it home from a Japanese meal in Kyoto. It is called Abalone or Awabi (Japanese) and is pearl inside with a row of (at least 9) perforations. It is rather light in weight. The right shell is pertrified and very old, I found it at a beach in France. I have no idea what exactly it is, but it could be an oyster type of shell. It is the perfect intermediate between a shell and a stone and rather heavy. The photo gives a reliable impression of the two very different textures of these shells.

Yesterday we went to Sandspit Point, Bellambi, a beach which we had never visited before.

These snails were around 2.5-3 cm wide.

I collected, a small bit of sand and shells from Shark net beach when we visited, Huskisson on the southern coast of NSW back in Nov 2023.

When I see a bunch of shells on the beach, I want to hoard them like a pirate. At some point in history, these were money.

This photo is reprocessed from an earlier version here. (justenoughfocus.smugmug.com/Portfolio/Full/i-MVVZNj3) The tools for post-processing are continually being updated, so lately I've been having a little fun going back to old photos to tease out a new look. I don't recall what tools I used back in 2015, but this time, I used the latest version of Skylum's Luminar.

Nevertheless, what got my attention in this scene is all of the shells in the foreground; they must have been deposited after a storm. You can go to a store and buy a bag of shells for ten bucks, or you could just go to the beach and pick them up yourself. Better yet, send me the money, and I'll get them for you! (just kidding)
