Shells again

This is the fourth image in my grid of six and is of more shells. These shells were collected on the beach at Dawlish Warren, Devon, a couple of summers ago. The excitement for me was to find a couple of tiny cowrie shells. When we were children these were one of the most prestigious finds of a day on the beach and were carefully guarded trophies.

I am pleased with the group and when the scallop shell is done I think the strong colour will really pull the whole together.
