Seashells

I love how black and white has brought out the textures of these two shells- one natural and the other pewter. Such a nice contrast of rough and smooth!

I bet you found a priceless pearl inside one of them, Ivan, haha. The textures in this shot are wonderful.

[Dione Giorgio]

Sorry, Ann. I thought I was commenting on another friend's shot. That's why I said Ivan.

Ann I love how these shapes show more detail when converted to black and white!
It's been so much fun learning how to convert to black and white!
