Shells from Kalba beach in Sharjah, UAE
Hello, I am a new visitor to your site, and am really enjoying it. I pick up shells on my travels, but have never thought of myself as a "collector". It has been fun identifying some of my finds.
I recently found these shells on the beach in Sharjah, UAE (near Fujairah) on New Year's Eve of this past year. I cannot seem to find any pictures of shells exactly like these. They seem to be muricidae, but the ones I've seen are whitish. These have a beautiful blue-ish tinge with darker rust colored striping. Can anyone tell me what they are? I'm having a hard time getting the smell out, and if they weren't so unique and beautiful, I'd throw them out. Thanks! Please forgive me if I'm doing this wrong, I'm trying to follow the instructions for posting my picture... <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.shutterfly.com/lightbox/view.sfly?fid=821f920fa739f861bcfd7207a7b1fe91">http://www.shutterfly.com/lightbox/view ... 07a7b1fe91</a><!-- m --> http://www.shutterfly.com/lightbox/view....07a7b1fe91 Hmmm....it doesn't appear that I've done this correctly. But above is the link to my photo on Shutterfly. Maybe someone can also tell me what I've done wrong to put my photo in the message. Karen Carpenter Trying again with the photo....hope this works! http://www.badongo.com/pic/14218610 |
