#257 Collection DocumentaShawn

I spent an hour yesterday photographing all our beach-coming treasures from Summer Vacation.

It was kinda fun, sorting through things. arranging things, in sand (we brought back from the beach), on wood, on the counter.  Thinking of different ways to dimply them.

All of the sea-glass, driftwood, shells, feathers, etc. Now I'm spending time editing and posting to Instagram. 

Here are the first two:

Shades of Green.

Shades of Brown.

#247 More Collection ObsesShawn

More Beach Combing Gold!

Not only did we get more fab Sea Glass in Victoria., We found a HUGE Moon Snail Shell (as big as Santiago's head) on our beach. And then in Borden we found a great  piece of blue glass.

Today was a very successful Beach Coming Day.

Haazaa!

#246 Collection ObsesShawn

A high point for our vacation, and a great way to while away the hours, not to mention it's extremely calming and de-stressing... is beach-combing and looking for sea-glass.

It was a slow start to the hunt this summer, when we first got here. A few pieces here and there. And then with some windy days and an abundance of seaweed on the beach at low tide, we thought we would go home almost empty handed.  

But then today we made it to one of our secret spots while the tide was low. And we struck seaglass gold!   A good 25 or so pieces, along with some old crockery pieces. 

We had such a good haul that we're going back tomorrow! 

But anyone that knows anything about Beach-combing means that one day is feast, then next could very well be famine...   Fingers crossed.
