WOw Cuba, exotic... Nice composition with the photos in the background. Watch out for color balance.

The striped colors on the shells are out of this world!

Thanks everyone . . I didn't think they were all that special because they are so common in the Carribean especially Haiti (they are actually tree snails I think) & the small one is a common cowrie (I think they used to be used as money for Native Americans)& I have so many of them, or I used to.
Rodney, we aren't far apart! Are your beach pix from Harrisons or down at fifteenth street?

Fantastic! I love the colours on these shells. Beautiful!

Wow, they are so unique shells (I live in Norfolk, just 10min from the beach). They wonderful. I also like the warmth of the photo.

I'm with Elizabeth on this. I've never seen shells like this either.
