Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera on August 26th, 2007. Click picture for larger view.
I really enjoy walking the coast and observe all the life living amongst the rocks, pebbles, sand and seaweed. My macro lens is a perfect tool to take photos of all this wonderful life.
Here you can see some snails and algae (I think it is gut weed (Ulva intestinalis)). Also notice all the beautiful details and colors in the sand/rocks.
Check out this other macro photo from the coast. It’s of a snail with seaweed as background. Liked the composition on that one.

If you have an eye for details, nature can be wonderful. This one was wonderful captured Thomas!
I love all those colours in the sand. Wonderful.
Thomas,
What is the shiny thing in the lower right of the photo?
Thanks for posting this beautiful and intricate shot.
Lisa:
I think it’s a piece of a shell covered by algae.
Nice meld of colors and textures.
I love how nature provides its own perfect color compositions. You’ve captured it perfectly here with the redder snail picking up the red pebbles. Great shot! Cindy at Rosehaven Cottage
