So…that’s what lives in the big shells….always wondered!!! Great picture Beth Ann! Did you ever consider being a photographer…you take some great pictures!
Aw. thanks, Amy!!! Took this one in Australia one day when it was a spectacular low tide and we saw all kinds of great things. I am a total amateur—Chris takes some really good shots, too. We have a lot displayed in our home of places we have been which is kind of a neat walk down memory lane.
Cute little Hermit Crab … I love finding creatures on the beach at low tide. I think a big part of photography is being in the right place at the right time. Of course it helps to have your camera with you, or your camera with the right lens on, or just not being so awed by what you are seeing that you forget to take a picture. I have done it all, but still occassionally get a good shot of something special. And, like you said … the pictures are a great trip down memory lane.
They are pretty cool. My brother has seen beaches just full of them and has told me all about that so someday I hope to actually see more than one or two at a time!

He was a nice little fella—wasn’t too concerned about us taking pictures of him!

Some things and some people should NOT come out of their shells. YUUUCCCKKKYYY !!
He looks really big or is it the picture that makes him look huge?
He was decent sized. And happy to be in his shell!
What a GREAT picture… did you wait around long enough for him (her?) to start hauling that shell down the beach?
No–he was just chilling and we left him / her be —perfect low tide day with lots to see.
Love it! I’m in a beachy state of mind today as well.
No words needed. Each of us is transported to our own special place.
wow..the coolest picture yet!!
Thank you!!!!
That’s amazing. I’ve never actually seen a hermit crab other than at the store.
