I ran into a good friend of many years some time ago and noticed as I was talking to him, that he had capped his famous chipped tooth. I really enjoyed that chipped tooth...

This is a wonderful photo and the caption really enhanced for me. It reminded me of something I would otherwise not have recalled.

Best,

Robin said...: I love the really warm colors, you don't see that often on a clamshell, at least not here. The orangey tones work really well with the black stripes.

Great tagline too.; 5/18/2009 3:30 AM

Shey said...: The flaws make the shell (and humans) more interesting. I love collecting shells and like photographing them too. I like this one as well. Great macro shot!

Have a great week! :); 5/18/2009 2:20 PM
srp said...: What a beautiful shell. Isn't it a wonder... some beaches have lots of shells to find and others do not. Lovely!; 5/18/2009 2:23 PM
carmilevy said...: I used to think small anomalies represented imperfections. But then I think of my grandmother's face. When I was a kid, I'd run my hands over her wrinkles and tell her how only she had wrinkles like that. They made her MY grandmother, and I couldn't imagine her being more beautiful without them.

I love the spirit of this shot for precisely the same reason.; 5/18/2009 2:47 PM
