Queen Scallop

Tonight while I was in town I noticed some pretty light forming out to the West so thought I would take a quick trip out to Karioitahi to get some shots.. I found this pretty little Queen Scallop shell... I have never seen these shell fish in this area so was pretty excited .,. the Golden Light was shining like diamonds on our black sand beach ..

excellent light - we had fairly spectacular sunset tonight but I was working at the time so missed most of it. I like this a lot though.
