Lovely photo Pete! Nigel saw it on my screen just now and admired it so I thought I’d let you know that we both like it very much 🙂

Thank you both very much, Liz 🙂 I am a bit of a restless soul and can not sit too long on the beach, and have to go and have a wander with my camera 🙂

So excited I’ve just re-found this! It’ll team up perfectly with a b&w sketch I’m featuring in a few days that has a hand holding a mussel shell at the beach, the shell looks just like this one..like the hand has just picked it up 😉

Lovely image Pete. A simple mussel shell looks much more interesting like this,

Thank you, Brian 🙂 The apparent randomess of the natural world can be quite beautiful.
